Beyond the Breakwater captures the St. Joseph Inner Pier Lighthouse standing against the wide expanse of Lake Michigan, where the solid lines of the pier give way to open water and horizon.
 
There is a quiet sense of distance in this scene—the feeling of looking beyond what is immediately in front of you toward something farther out. The lighthouse becomes both an anchor and a destination, holding its place at the edge of the lake while the water stretches beyond it.
 
Photographed in St. Joseph, Michigan, Beyond the Breakwater was created for those drawn to the stillness, strength, and beauty found along the Great Lakes.
