Document: A Photographic Journey

While this particular assignment calls for multiple shots of a single subject, I decided to bend the rules a bit. I chose to document an island - Madeline Island.

For those who don't know where the island is, it is one of twelve islands that form the Apostle Island National Lakeshore in Lake Superior.

Light

The best lighting conditions for great photographs tend to be during the morning hours around dawn. While this is typically my favorite time to shoot, practicality dictates that I take most of my pictures before sunset and into the evening hours. Bringing my camera outside during this time provides me with completely different contexts in which to take photographs, all within a relatively short time frame. The following set of photographs documents one of my journeys as I experience a progression from day into night.
