As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve been off the grid the last 10 days or so. Between work, work travel, my Baldrige volunteer work and some fun travel; I’ve been extremely busy. I started last week in Washington D.C. for work meetings and ended the week in northern Michigan to get some ship wreck scuba diving in around the Mackinaw Straits area of Lake Huron. By the way, the scuba diving in the Great Lakes is amazing. But I’ll leave that for another day.

Anyway, I had an old friend contact me to see if I’d photograph his hunting resort and ranch in Northern Michigan. He had no idea that I was going to already be in that area. So, I spent some time at his 605 acres ranch and resort photographing the deer, the property and the facilities. I have to admit, he has a wonderful setup if you just want some quiet time in the forest or you want to bag a trophy white tail buck. You can see more on his location here: http://www.valhallami.com/

Tonight’s photo is one of the bucks. We came up on this one by mistake and found it laying in the tall grass.
