Between Two Lakes by Michael Itkoff

Issue 39

To develop a relationship with a specific place, with a piece of land, with a view, with local trees and animals is a profound experience that unfolds over time. Although I have lived in many different places over the years I have managed to return to the same cabin in Pennsylvania for most of my life. The cabin sits between two lakes in Northeastern Pennsylvania and all of the photographs in this portfolio were taken in the five-hundred acres that separate them.
