• the Ren Cen

At Atwater

My friend Vanessa at the abandoned Atwater building.
I think she is shooting with one of her cameras... but it looks like she may be crying... or maybe even trying to take a dump??

That is the Ren Cen in the background... a juxtaposition of old and new.

This is a scanned print shot with a Canon Rebel Ti on Kodak 400 UC film. Color was x-processed in CS2.

    great capture...leaves so much to the imagination trying to figure out what the subject is doing. i also like the composition of the flares...

    Should we have a vanished Detroit group for shots like this that can't be taken any more?

    I think a "vanished Detroit" group would be a good thing! great idea, DetroitBikeBlog!

    I like the look of that shot. The darkness is great and the lense flare is perfect.

    This is a fantastic shot, b/c...to me...it perfectly illustrates the decay of Detroit in the ever-present shadow of the Ren Cen...awesome pic!
