Shawn Thompson - Lake Superior Photographer's photostream |
When the sun rises over Lake Superior, odds are you’ll find Shawn Thompson ready for the day’s images, camera in hand. From the urban landscape of Duluth to the surrounding boreal forest, Shawn delights in capturing the special beauty that epitomizes northern Minnesota.
Shawn’s love of the outdoors, his passion for photography, and his eye for depth are all readily apparent in his images. Passionate about the art of meaningful photography, Shawn spends his free time exploring Lake Superior’s north shore and surrounding areas, never content with just a pretty picture. From a frost-rimed rock surrounding by steaming water on a sub-zero day, to the riot of color on autumn hillside, Shawn strives to have each photo tell a story. And through his gallery, viewers can experience the full breadth and depth of a landscape that changes by the minute, day, and season.
Shawn is always eager to interact with his viewers, so please contact him HERE with questions, comments, or suggestions. Whether he’s discussing a technical issue or providing an image with that extra layer of depth, Shawn would love to help you tell your own story.

"Shawn is such an outstanding landscape photographer and strobist! I always try to copy his work. Copying is the largest form of flattery"

"i was going to fill this testimonial with purple prose about what an excellent photographer shawn is, and how wonderfully inspiring his shots are.
in the middle of writing, though, i realized i could not dismiss what truly awful photography he turns out--shot after shot of pure shit!
i fear that looking through his stream has actually eroded my own ability.
he's also got no sense of humor whatsoever and will probably get all butt hurt i wrote this testimonial. screw him anyway."21st January, 2009
