The Tombolo
North Shore, Minnesota
I've seen countless images of the tombolo and I made it a mission to capture this moment. On hazy summer evening, I finally ventured to this location along the North Shore.
Given that it was my first time ever on this shoreline, I was a bit skeptical about the trail to get here. I ventured through the trail feeling all kinds of nerves but as I got on the shoreline I was rewarded to this iconic gem.
Once I laid eyes on this beauty, I was more at ease. The calming subtle waves creating harmony with the rocks setting the tone for the vibes here. As I set up my gear to capture this moment, the sun was lending its rays onto the tombolo creating this golden glow and at this point, I thought about my Grandmother and the stories about her when I was growing up.
Where I came from in New Jersey, She was a Librarian who was kind to everyone. She would help people by displaying her love and kindness to anyone. Most would say that she had a heart of gold.
Seeing the tombolo in person in this golden glow made me really appreciate this moment and at the same time, felt like this was a sign from my Grandmother saying that she's always with me in spirit.
