Nestled in the scenic landscape of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, the Portage Lake Lift Bridge stands as a testament to engineering marvel and community spirit. This iconic structure, also known as the Houghton–Hancock Bridge, serves as a vital link between the cities of Houghton and Hancock, bridging the waters of Portage Lake and the Keweenaw Waterway.

Lake Michigan, one of the five Great Lakes of North America, is a stunning natural wonder that captivates visitors with its vast expanse and serene beauty. Spanning approximately 1,640 miles of shoreline, Lake Michigan offers a diverse range of landscapes, from bustling urban areas to tranquil beaches and towering sand dunes.

A couple of years ago, I embarked on a photographic adventure that led me to one of the most breathtaking sights I've ever witnessed. As a photographer and the founder of Phil Stagg Photography, I have always been drawn to the natural beauty of Michigan. This particular journey took me to Miners Castle, a stunning rock formation along the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, with the Northern Lights dancing in the background over Lake Superior. The result was a mesmerizing photo that I later transformed into a 500-piece puzzle for my brand, MI Puzzles.

Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a city known for its rich history, vibrant culture, and dynamic arts scene. Nestled along the Grand River, this bustling metropolis offers a unique blend of old-world charm and modern innovation. Among its many landmarks, the Blue Bridge stands out as a symbol of the city's architectural beauty and historical significance.

There’s a unique beauty to lighthouses, standing as timeless guardians along our coastlines. A couple years back, I had the pleasure of photographing Round Island Lighthouse on a perfect summer day. With a brilliant blue sky adorned with fluffy pink clouds, this picturesque scene has now been transformed into a cherished 500-piece puzzle.

There’s something magical about lighthouses, standing tall against the elements and guiding sailors safely to shore. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Sturgeon Point Lighthouse, a stunning structure that perfectly embodies the charm of these coastal sentinels. With its white exterior and vibrant red window shutters and doors, this lighthouse is a sight to behold, especially against a backdrop of a cloudy blue sky.
