Creating a Website with my Photos of Detroit – Please help me name the site!

I’m in the process of creating a website to share my photos of Detroit. I am by no means a professional photographer, and I’m not trying to sell anything on the site. However, I do enjoy taking pictures of buildings and landscapes that I find interesting, and sharing them with people. Over the past several months I’ve taken hundreds of photos, which are just sitting on my hard drive. The photos that I plan on posting have been ‘photo-shopped’, in order to enhance some of the colors [[see attached examples). The problem I’m having is…what should I call this site?? My wife and I can’t seem to come-up with a name, and I was hoping that someone on this forum might have a suggestion. Any thoughts?

Off the top of my head:

I love the pictures! Please let us know when you do have a website up and going!

interesting pics, are you going to stick with the holga look? Is that something you want to promote or are you more interested in city-scapes and are just using the holga style to communicate your vision of the buildings?

If you're more focused on Detroit architecture I would think something like D-stop with an iris replacing the "o" and an olde English "D" might work. If you're into photo effects and are just using buildings as a tool, maybe D ffects might be catchy.

I like the DetroitRevealed suggestion. I would make sure it starts with the word Detroit, as Detroityes does. You want all those global google hits.

yep, gotta agree, that is a much better name

And another catchy one -- Detroit Photographs 2011 + I too like your shots but not the Photoshopped colors.

"AS AGRAHIMA SEES IT"

You don't have to hit people over the head with "Detroit" to get the word out about good photos of Detroit.

You're welcome

Perhaps not original; however, currently available according to Whois.net website is:

Detroitpix.com Just a thought, my own .2 cents.
