Above the North: Aerial Photography of Northern Michigan

Above the North: Aerial Photography of Northern Michigan by Beaver, Marge. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780472115495.

These stunning birds-eye views offer rare and beautiful glimpses of northern Michigans unique terrain from the lofty perch of photographer Marge Beavers camera lens. Beavers breathtaking four-season photographs transform our view of Michigan into a magical land. From the Sleeping Bear dune in winter with its vertiginous sandy edifice to a Coast Guard cutter shattering the icy Straits to the ghostly silhouette of a sunken ship and the brilliant turquoise waters of Crystal, Torch, Elk, Charlevoix, and Glen lakes, these are images of Michigan as youve never seen her before. All of these, plus arresting photographs of cherry orchards in snowy-white bloom, winding rivers, and deep green forests make this book a collectors item for anyone who loves Michigan. Marge Beaver has been the Midwests premiere aerial photographer for the past 20 years. She has taken photographs in nearly every U.S. state, and her aerial photos have graced the covers of over 35 books and magazines. She lives in Muskegon, Michigan.
