A Day at Sandy Ridge

I've been on vacation for the past week and last Thursday I decided to go to the Sandy Ridge Reservation in North Ridgeville. Here's a description of Sandy Ridge from their website....

Sandy Ridge Reservation is a 310 acre wetland and wildlife preserve located in North Ridgeville. The park opened in 1999 and has quickly become a favorite of outdoor enthusiasts and one of the most popular parks for birding in Lorain County. The reservation lies on level, soggy ground flanked to the north and south by ancient beach ridges and consists of forests and open lands to explore.

I thought maybe some of my photographer friends might want to join me, so I posted a Spur of the Moment Cool Photo Op at Sandy Ridge on the Cool Photo Ops facebook group. By the way if you're not familiar with the Cool Photo Ops group, it's a group where we post cool places to take photos in Ohio and beyond. Everyone is welcome to join in the fun and post photos and let other photographers know of great places to take photos, family and friends can come along too. To join just go here:  Cool Photo Ops

Well quite a few photographers saw the post and decided to join me, here's some photos of our adventure at Sandy Ridge  (Click on any photo to go to a gallery to see more photos)
