"A man travels the world in search of what he needs and returns home to find it." - George Moore

I was fortunate to grow up on a "farm" - actually a couple hundred acres of mixed hardwood forest, croplands, prairie remnants and a small lake - in the Midwestern US. The land is still in the family and although I visit fairly often, I have never extensively photographed it. The images that follow reflect my efforts to improve my photography and to document this wonderful place.
