More of Detroit’s downtown buildings, these things that make me swoon and forget to look where I’m going.
This time in black and white, also 35mm film. A study in shapes, lines, angles. I took these on both the last day of 2016 and on the first day of 2017, closing out and opening up the new year looking up.
These were shot on two different different Minolta SLR cameras and both with Kodak Tri-X film–an SRT-102 using the suggested film speed (400) and an X-700 pushing the film two stops to 1600. I’m not certain I can tell the difference, but this is my first stab at pushing and I think it might not be my last.
I dream of sumac and milkweed (and other wild things) 
Beautiful shots. My faves are “Lines and shadows” and “transition” are absolutely stunning. Gorgeous photography as usual. 😊

Thank you so much. While there are parts of Detroit that do indeed look like a war zone, I love the vibrant parts, the business district, the architecture. There is much to be surprised by here.

Thank you for highlighting that! The way it’s talked about one begins to wonder..glad there’s more to the city then just decay.

Yes, far more. I think many of the people that trash Detroit have never stepped foot within city limits. It’s a shame.
