"The Dive" by Michael, 17 | Apostle Islands National Lakeshore

I have had a rough life and that is all I will say. The main challenge in my life was my depression. My main hope for the future is to be a United States Marine. At first I hated the idea of taking pictures. It's odd that now I find beauty in things that I took for granted. When I take pictures there is no worry of anything. My photos are as simple as they come, and that's why I like them.
