"Standing Strong" by Mike, 16 | Isle Royale National Park

This light house reminds me of my mother.
Not only does she like light houses but she is
strong and helpful like this light house.
In times of need she is there to guide me
And stand strong for what is right.

About Michael: "My name is Michael, I live in Oconto Wisconsin. I am sixteen and I am a junior at Oconto High School. I am a troubled young man who has a strong desire to change my life. My goal is to graduate high school and go to college to be a fireman. I have one kid, and he has inspired me to change my life. Photography puts me in my happy place. The minute I pick up my camera nothing else matters any more, it’s like I’m in a completely different world where I’m free from every thing that troubles me."
