Wayne State University, Detroit, MI

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.

All photos taken with Canon 7d and post processed in Lightroom 3.2.

Detroit Labor Day Jazz Fest

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.

Here a few of the images that I shot on Saturday evening.

Labor Day weekend in Detroit

The two end of summer festivals in the Detroit area are the Jazz Festival in Detroit and Arts, Eats, and Beats in Royal Oak, MI (many years in Pontiac, MI.). On Friday afternoon I was able to spent a few hours looking and listening. I captured shots of performers at 6 different venues and here they are.
