End of Summer Fields

The mix of greens, yellows, and gold that are the signature of fields that have not been cut. These scenes are from a park in Detroit. The Eliza Howell Park is a beautiful example. Enjoy these images. All have been post processed.

Greenfield Village (The Henry)

An hour or so spent at The Henry (Greenfield Village) in Dearborn, MI always provides a few interesting shots. Yesterday was no exception. Here is a shot of an old country home from the south and the pickup point for a ride in one of Ford’s early cars.

Shopping

I often carry a camera with me when window shopping with my wife. Here are two examples of things that caught my eye.

No mannequins, no problem, just throw these dresses on the window ledge.

Urban Gardens

The urban garden can turn a vacant lot into the source of wonderful fresh vegetables. In addition the labor that is used is great for the body of the gardeners. Here is an example of such a plot in the early spring, before planting has taken place.

Pre Easter Ride

This Saturday was a beautiful day – sunny, warm, spring like. My wife and I thought that a short trip (high gas prices) was in order. We decided to travel from the southern border of Oakland County, MI to the northwest corner and visit the cute little town of Holly, Michigan. This sleepy little town is filled with antique shop. Here are some of the interesting  things that we saw.

This is a really BIG bear. I was told that it was a Russian Brown Bear.

This comic character was not impressed by the big bear.

 

_MG_6492

She refused to even look at the bear.

 

The next part of the short trip took us south to the village of Milford (and lunch). This Easter greeting just happened to be in a window flower box.

This was an interesting  piece of painted ceramic.

 

And it is not everyday that you see a chopper theme on a whirly gig.

Detroit Winter Blast - 2011

The sun was out, the temperature was 35+ degrees, the crowd was happy to be outdoors. Skating was a focal point in the activities as these photos show.

Detroit DIA

My wife and I spent a pleasant few hours at the Detroit Institute of Art  on Thursday. I love a theme to photograph around.

Who are you most like in one of these masks?
