LEAKIN PARK 2 © 1997Baltimore, MD
I had heard about Leakin Park in Maryland, the many attempts for development, and the fight to set protections against development in this natural area. I wanted to help raise awareness about this beautiful public land and its need for urgent protection. Gwynns Falls/Leakin Park is Baltimore’s hidden oasis. This 1,216-acre urban wilderness is the second-largest woodland park in the United States. I took this image for the Wilderness Society to support their efforts to preserve the park.
