Layne Kennedy USA 2nd Place - Merit of Excellence Nature Professional "Wrath of Superior" Lake Superior has a reputation for "never giving up her dead."

Watching the cliffs of Tettegouche get pounded by monster waves and fortunate enough to get close to capture it, I was elated as a kid in a candy store. |
