A true craftsman at work. Much appreciated.

[@caseylimbert266]

Kevin, I just wanted to tell you that I love your vids, I love your photography, I love the music you chose for your vids, I love the things and places (especially the boats) and your channel. Thanks for what you're doing here, please keep it going.

[@sandwich1984]

I'm commenting and giving a thumbs up because how does this amazing video only have 700 views? The production, photography and content are worthy of 700k+ views in my book. Great work Mr. O'Donnell, I look forward to future videos.

[@KODOPhoto]

Wow, thank you! The main reason my channel has not received more views is that I don't play to the KZbin algorithm. I hope you will subscribe so that you are alerted to future videos. Thanks for watching!

My first 1000 footer. Been on her more than a few times. I have t shirts and many things from my time on her. Thanks for sharing this great video. Cheers from Sarnia Ontario Canada 🇨🇦. I miss Lake Superior.

[@danielmorris3687]

I guess I was on my motorcycle trip when this video was posted because im just discovering it now. Definitely a pleasant surprise! 🇨🇦

American Century needs a paint job! 😁 We have been lucky to see her in the Soo Locks and at the St.Clair power plant on the St. Clair River in MI and in Port Huron MI, we love seeing her passing by so close. Last year we were lucky to see her fleet sister freighter American Mariner loading at Two Harbors and then swapping spots with Michipicoten with the Nels J. tugboat keeping an eye on them. As far as Marquette and and this new Lake Superior photography adventure series you posted, I can't wait to watch them all. Marquette is so interesting, the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and the Lake of the Clouds are beautiful, and we loved finally visiting Minnesota's famous North Shore last year. Now we just need to get to Death's Door Passage and Sturgeon Bay and explore Door County.

Thanks Kevin. Always great work ...

[@philipdziki8822]

Love your stuff, Kev. My daughter and family we’re living in Marquette and Nauganee up until about a month ago. He got a new job at the hospital in Iron Mountain. We were going to the Marquette are for years. What a hopping city it now is. Love your other videos also.

[@lyndacottam397]

Hi Kevin. Loved how you narrated the ore boat passing. I understood every word you said, as you speak at the same speed my brain and ears function. Please do continue with the content. They’re really are much appreciated. P.S. it was nice to finally see Colleen in your previous video. You even allowed her a speaking part. Thank you xx

[@KODOPhoto]

[@cynicbeliever40]

Beautiful. Thank you, Kevin.

[@KODOPhoto]

You're very welcome

[@garymann5998]

Another great video, and the storytelling is so interesting, that ore dock was incredible, pictures and drone video are stunning, thanks for sharing.

[@KODOPhoto]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@darinhyden672]

Very nice! Not surprised. Always nice. Glad Mrs. O Is doing well. 👍

[@KODOPhoto]

Us too! Thank you!

[@bdctrans70]

Once again, you have done an outstanding job with your video. Your perspective on your objectives and research about the places you film at, really emphasizes how we should look beyond our destinations and look for the story before we reach our destination and once we are there to seek further information. Thank you once again for sharing with us

[@KODOPhoto]

So nice of you to say so. Thank you, @bdctrans70!

[@packoutjunkie160]

Fantastic video as per usual. We love Marquette, and took a very similar picture of the ore dock about a month ago. We got my son a camera and he is learning as well. Next time drive 45 mins farther East to Munising. The Pictured Rocks are stunning. One of our favorite places to go. Can’t wait for your next one.

[@garyg1144]

Hi Kevin. I was enable to vicariously enjoy a wonderful great lakes trip thanks to your video. Excellent video quality, music and sound were great and augmented the fine images. I hope all is well with you as has been a while since this video aired. Take care.

[@KODOPhoto]

Many thanks!

[@sandyk13599]

Thank you, Tim, as always!

[@skycvg]

Really enjoyed your Duluth Aerial Bridge perspective. Thanks for taking us along.

[@marywright6759]

Lovely video. Thank you.

[@KODOPhoto]

Thank you too!

[@philipdziki8822]

Love your stuff, Kev. Am in Galway right now. Just got off of Aran Island. Here for another week.

[@hunterdaenzer]

Your phots are so amazing! I wish i could figure out how to edit mine as sharp as you can. You do an outstanding job! Keep it up!!

[@KODOPhoto]

Thank you! Will do!

[@chuckg6039]

Wonderful video Kevin. I took a vacation to Duluth last week. A 750 mile drive from Columbus, Ohio. The first ship I watched was this ship.....the American Century. After a few days in the Twin Ports, I drove up to the Mesabi Iron Ore Range. Wow is that area incredible! I wanted to see the source of the iron ore. One of the highlights was seeing the massive Hull-Rust Mine in Hibbing, MN. It now stretches over 9 miles.

[@KODOPhoto]

Fantastic, Chuck! I plan on returning this fall/winter. I must check out the Range based on your recommendation. Thanks!

[@pwhitkinn4543]

Wish I would have known you were in Marquette. It would have been nice to meet you. The pictures are beautiful, just too bad the clouds had to move in. You scoped out Silver Bay the day before, so you would know what to wear and match the tables....😉 Where was the mural that was under the bridge located? It's amazing.

[@KODOPhoto]

Thank you. The murals are underneath the RR trestle that divides the towns of Hurley Wi and Ironwood, Mi.

[@pwhitkinn4543]

@@KODOPhoto Next time we're over that way, I'm going to look for them. Thank you for the information.

[@Mr31formula]

Great video. Really like using ND's. Trying out some reverse ND's for sunrise sunset images. Thank you for your hard work.

[@KODOPhoto]

Glad you like them!

[@RonStanek]

Kevin, getting ready for the fall colors? Only about a month away?

[@MichaelPattersonuptown_detroit]

Hi Kevin- would there be anyway to purchase a print of the ore dock? I have a good friend who loves that structure and it would make a great gift. Tremendous photos. Loving your work.

[@KODOPhoto]

Certainly. Please contact me through FaceBook messenger for details. (assuming you have a FB account?) Thanks!
