"Feather" by Michael, 17 | The Pioneers
About Michael: "My name is Michael. I am 17 years old, and I'm from Centuria, WI. When I get older my dream job is to be an electrical lineman and to build a farm and have a ranch. This photography unit has taught me that I have great talents. It also means I can do more with my life then just sit around. When I leave this photography unit I will wish I could keep taking photos with one-of-a-kind teachers like Benjamin Thwaits."
