Peak summer on the beach - Lake Nokomis - Minneapolis Biking back from lunch at Lake Nokomis I stopped to take a photo of peak summer in Minneapolis. A guy soaking up the sun, lifeguards watching over kids in the lake and a couple lounging in the shade. Officially, the city has 22 lakes within the city limits which feels like a lot more than what I think of when I think about the lakes here. https://photos.clintmcmahon.com/2026-08-06 #minneapolis #summer #lakenokomis #beach #photography
