  • Renaissance Center

    Renaissance Center

    This is the GM Renaissance Center. I quite like downtown Detroit - it has a quite a mix of contemporary, classic, the more dated looking facades. 2018

  • GM Renaissance Center

    GM Renaissance Center

    The GM Renaissance Center, a very famous landmark in downtown Detroit, made famous, perhaps, during the 2008 financial crises given its symbolic representation of a flailing auto industry. 2018

  • Windsor, Canada

    Windsor, Canada

    Directly across the Trenton from Detroit lies the relatively sleepy city of Windsor, in Canada. Compared the U.S. metropolis, this places looks like a backwater. 2018.

  • GM Renaissance Center Riverfront

    GM Renaissance Center Riverfront

    Sunset creeps up behind the GM Renaissance Center; the iconic Detroit towers on the Detroit River shoreline. 2018.

  • GM Towers

    GM Towers

    The GM Renaissance Center - perhaps a symbol of a depressed motor industry in Detroit - these ominous looking towers dwarf anything else in the city and, to me, have a kind of intimidating and dominating appearance.

  • Detroit Princess

    Detroit Princess

    It's a long way to come to find a Mississippi style riverboat in the Great Lakes. This is the Detroit Princess, moored on the dock in Detroit, on the Detroit River, with the main crossing into Canada visible in the background. 2018.

  • Hart Plaza and Jefferson Avenue

    Hart Plaza and Jefferson Avenue

    Hart Plaza and Jefferson Avenue; a series of towers and what looks like a dormant water feature near the riverfront in Detroit. Lots of flags on this side of the river; i noticed just one on the Canadian side. 2018.

  • Transcending

    Transcending

    This artwork is known as 'Transcending' and is a tribute to the Labor Movement. Perhaps it is fitting to see such a monument in the city of Detroit, long something of a bellwether place describing the fortunes of this demographic group. 2018.

  • Detroit Sunset

    Detroit Sunset

    Always been fascinated by the steam being vented in the NE American cities - often wondered what actually was down there. This is Detroit, on a cold Spring day. 2018.

  • GM Renaissance Center

    GM Renaissance Center

    I walked around Detroit the night before, looking for good locations for a shot of the GM Renaissance Center: those ominous auto industry towers that grab the Detroit landscape. This juxtaposition of old and new seemed like one of the best vantage points. 2018.

  • Detroit Light Trails

    Detroit Light Trails

    This seemed like a good spot for some light trails, and a local bus happily presented the perfect subject. It was a very cold night and I was having trouble with a new tripod, so I was reasonably happy with this effort. 2018.
