I’ve done quite a bit of camping in the UP of Michigan and have been really impressed by how much beauty can be found up there. Doing Pictured Rocks, Tahquamenon Falls, and Kitch-iti-kipi on a 4 day weekend trip is pretty incredible. So I’d do Isle Royale and hot up a few more landmarks while being up there. Sounds like a good clean inexpensive trip!
I get it. I shoot in RAW+JPEG and sometimes the filter I prethought up isn’t working and I’ll batch edit the RAWs. But I’ve learned enough and enjoy shooting in the moment. I am happy with my JPEGs 90% of the time. Some examples: www.niedermier.org
