Welcome to Riverhu Photography

The Huron River

Most of the images that you will find here are taken within and around the Downriver area of southeastern, Michigan. The Huron River (pictured above) divides both Wayne and Monroe counties among others. Which just happens to be one of my favorite subjects to photograph. Anything having to do with nature interests me. So expect to find photographs of rivers, lakes, landscapes, wildflowers, and wildlife.
