Michigan in Pictures

**Photo obtained from History.com

My very Web-savvy and native Michigander Aunt Lynette (who currently soaks up the sun in Florida) introduced me to this awesome photo blog, Michigan in Pictures.

It’s produced by the same guys who created Absolute Michigan. The purpose of the photo blog is “to showcase the state of Michigan through visual means.” I’ve only been following this blog for about a week now, but I can already sense that the photographers seek to capture the unique and untold stories of Michigan. Many people don’t have the first clue about how naturally beautiful Michigan is, so it’s up to us natives to spread the word through visual blogs such as Michigan in Pictures. I’m not one to talk about not truly knowing the beauty of Michigan because I’ve yet to travel north of Petoskey. No worries, a trip to northern Michigan and the UP is at the top of mine and MAL’s agenda this summer – now that we don’t have to worry about five summer weddings like last year!

So check out the blog and give a shout out to these creative and talented photographers.
