This is the ninth year of a pilgrimage to Oval Beach in Saugatuck, Michigan to visit site where my late wife’s ashes are spread.

September 13 is our anniversary and I’ve been going there yearly to visit and photograph the sunset.

This year I missed the dramatic cloud formations by a day but still managed to capture a few good sunset photos and also took some portrait shots of some of the local residents and visitors to this charming lakeside city.
