Heidelberg Project


This summer I visited the Heidelberg Project in Detroit.  It is a neighborhood that use people's creativity to turn unsightly trash into beauty.   Car tires, shoes, toys, electronics, carts, doors, buckets, empty bottles, you name it.   They turned the whole neighborhood into a work of art.  It was so colorful.  It is very interesting to see how creative minds work. 
Check it out some time.

Architecture


I love the architecture of the old buildings in Detroit.  They have so much lovely details.  You can tell they put a lot into designing and building them.  It is hard to capture the beautiful details, but here are a few images.


 I'm going to have to share more photos of buildings soon.

Foggy Mornings

I just love the way fog makes everything look.  It gives a whole different look to things and sets a very unique mood.  This is Woodward Avenue in downtown Detroit, a very busy street in the center of Detroit.  But the fog makes it look so attractive and even peaceful.  I love the way the lights glow, too.
