A Photo A Day From Detroit...

[night-timer]

I wish to thank everyone who helped me identify the location of the [[now demolished) Connor Creek Power Plant in one of my photos.

I am currently in the process of placing my entire archive of photography onto my new website [[https://www.wallace-media.net/archive), which means I'm presently going through all of my Detroit pix.

I'd like to share these images with you. I don't have a lot of time to spend here on the forum, but a brief visit once a day should be manageable.

But I want to make it clear that I am not doing this to 'showcase' my images - I'm doing it to showcase your strangely fascinating City of Detroit...

It seems to me that the days of 'ruin porn' in Detroit are mostly gone [[except in the 'burbs) because Downtown Detroit got adopted by Dan Gilbert.

Anyway, here's my first shot... Gratiot Avenue [[at Mack Avenue), shot with a long lens...

I will include camera/lens data for those who are interested in image-making....

Thanks, night-timer, AKA Robert Wallace in Australia... some of you may have met me. I'll come back next summer...
