“Summer Rush” by Brad Reed Lake Michigan lives and breathes. Beastly, ferocious, raging, wild. Calm, quiet, tranquil still. She decides her own mood. For this photograph, I stood in Lake Michigan with my tripod and camera to capture the immediacy of the rolling waves and to make the viewer experience and feel the “Summer Rush”.
