A recent visit to Belle Isle in Detroit, gave me the opportunity to photograph statues of long dead men. Who are they and will the current crop of politicians ever warrant having their likeness in stone or bronze?
This last photo captures a beautiful tranquil scene. Where is it?

When the sky is blue and sun is bright, you might say it sound like picture perfect weather.
The grounds of Cranbrook, and the reservoir in Birmingham, MI provided just such a setting.

I know this building has been photographed thousands of times, but I just had to take another shot of it.

The campus of Wayne State is in the heart of Detroit, just north of the downtown area. Like many urban universities, the landscape is a mix of old and new. Old building used for student housing and more modern works of art.
Here are a few examples of both.

The 2010 Jazz Festival in Detroit provided both sights and sounds. The crowd was smaller this year, but everyone appeared to be having a good time.

Every two years the Heidelberg Project holds a party and showing for the community. This year featured all of the works along with music, food, crowds, and more. Despite the threat of rain, people stopped to look at and marvel. The advent of the digital camera gave almost everyone the chance to capture shots of both the art work and the people. I saw camera phones, point and shoots, and high level DSLR’s being used to shoot anything and everything. Here are some of what I captured.
 Who and what the project is about. |
