One of the best parts of writing for Only in Your State is that I get to look at beautiful photos. I’ve discovered that there are some really, really, really good photographers lurking in Illinois. So I’ve rounded up thirteen of the best shots of Illinois I have discovered during my time writing. Enjoy!

1. Love this shot of the inside of a covered bridge in Channahon.

9. The only thing that would make this picture look more magical is fairy dust. This sunburst was captured at Burnridge Forest Preserve (Gilberts).

12. Equally patriotic shot of fireworks in Springfield.
