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.

In Black and White


"Pure White"
 Once I forgot to change the settings on my camera and took a black and white photo of a flower.  After downloading it and viewing, I realized the image was truely spectacular in black and white.  It gave a whole new impression to the image.  Since then, I've tried to photograph flowers in black and white more often.

"Feed Me"
 The image above looks so dramatic ("Pure White" is available for purchasing on Etsy) .

The image to the left - "Feed Me" looks very compelling.


"Awesome"

And "Awesome" looks simply awesome!

I'd like to know what you think
of these images.

Ghetto Art

 As I mentioned in another post, everything can be art if you only look at it the right way.  This stack of tires were thrown in an alley among the weeds.  It caught my attention so I thought I would make it into one of my creations.  What do you think?
