Richard Thompson Photography | Visions of Michigan

The photographic gallery of Michigan fine art landscape photographer Richard Thompson. Fine art photography and prints celebrating the natural beauty of Michigan, the Great Lakes, historic lighthouses, inland lakes, natural landscapes and rural Michigan countryside.


Over the course of a short few years, Richard has endeavored to photograph some of Michigan's most scenic and cherished landscapes and shorelines, including the Great Lakes, Michigan State Parks, historic lighthouses, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, and more. His journey continues from the quiet meadows of Michigan's rural countryside, to the shining shores of the Great Lakes coast, to the unspoiled wilderness of northern Michigan and the upper peninsula.


Celebrate the natural wonder of Michigan and the Great Lakes through a limited selection of fine art photography and prints available for purchase or licensing. Ten percent of all proceeds is donated to nonprofit organizations towards the preservation of our sacred land.
