Cleveland Metro Parks, OH
February 2024
Even though it was muddy, Eric spent Sunday getting his steps in on the trail. Normally his wife joins him, but this weekend he solo adventured a piece of the @clevemetroparks trails. When I asked to take his photo, Eric laughed and said “no problem, my wife is also a photographer and I pose for her a lot.”
Each chapter is handled with care, honesty and respect. Here is what is takes to be considered for the next one
A spillway rebuilt so steelhead trout can find their way back to Lake Erie. Coming Fall 2026.
A 50 year old private trail, its final season open before logging moves in on land once used as a landfill.
Where this project began, a free national park that taught me how much people shape a place.
The volunteers who keep a 1,400 mile trail connected across Ohio, one blaze and cleared log at a time.
A dam removal on the Cuyahoga River and the people affected by the restoration. Coming Fall 2026.
Kite surfers, mountain bikers, skaters, people met in passing rather than by appointment.
Portraits of Akron students building a life around the outdoors, met through a campus climate symposium and the people who followed.
