Tunnel of Trees

MJ and I are supposed to be in Bermuda…..but COVID messed that up, like it messed up all of 2020.  So, we decided to get away regardless….  Pure Michigan it is!!  We traveled the Lake Michigan coast.  This photo is from inside the Tunnel of Trees which is north of Harbor Springs.

Fall On The Trail

MJ and I went for a little hike on the Montour Trail in Washington County last weekend.  I dragged my camera along, because if I didn’t there would have been an amazing shot to take without a camera.  So, I carried it the entire walk and took a grand total of one photo and here it is…….

Packard Plant Water Tower

The famous abandoned Packard Automotive Plant in Detroit.  I loved the photos I got with the drone about the water tower.

Flight 93 Museum

I’ve been holding this photo back for some time.  I have no reason why.  I loved the leading lines and the design of this structure.  This is the entrance to the Flight 93 Museum outside of Pittsburgh.  The building is great but the material inside is powerful and sad stuff.

Downtown Pittsburgh

Tonight, I have an evening photo of Pittsburgh taken last year.  How can you tell it wasn’t taken this year?   You can tell by looking at all the travel light trails on the roads.  If I had taken it this year the street would have been empty.  Truly beautiful downtown city.

Danube Views

In this post, I have the beautiful Chain Bridge and Hungarian Parliament Building along the Danube River in Budapest Hungary.  I loved this city.  If we can ever get over, around and/or past COVID-19, I hope to go to Budapest again.

Detroit Glory

This abandoned automotive factory is a wonderful explore.  I’ve been there a couple of times and would go back again.  It isn’t as big as the abandoned Packard Plant, but it is massive in its own right and there was a section full of unopened hockey sports cards….

City Methodist

Here is a photo I took with my drone outside the abandoned City Methodist Church in Gary Indiana.  Of course, this was taken during the filming of “Shutter Rush – City of Abandonment”.  I don’t think we used it in the film, but I liked this photo regardless.

Change The System...

“Change the system, not the climate, the future is for children”… nice graffiti message on an alley wall in Regensburg Germany.  We saw lots of graffiti around Europe with this type of style, interesting how different it is compared to the very modern (almost pop culture) graffiti style in the United States.  By the way, I have no idea if this is random or supported by a specific group or political party.

VIYNL 19

Here is another view from inside Veronica’s Veil.  I loved the “vinyl 19” graffiti on the back of the chairs. I saw this composition when we first arrived and mentioned I was going to capture it before we left….. So Blair took this photo before me since I mentioned it….  He is such a copycat….

T.A.B.

Tonight, I have a TAB (Throwback Antonio Brown) photo for you.  I took this during the 2017-18 NFL season.  That was back when Antonio Brown was still normal and didn’t lose control of every situation. 

 

Unfortunately, due to COVID I’m not photographing the games this year….at least for now.  I’m hoping later this season, I’ll get access again….  Darn it Steelers, let me back in!! I’m COVID free, does that help??  Ugh, 2020 is terrible.

Budapest Glory

I’m sure I said this in the past, but I’ll say it again.  I loved our time in Budapest.  The history, architecture, food and people are amazing.  I had a great time wandering around taking photos.  I got a chance on two nights to just explore along the Danube River by myself and captured this photo on one of those nights.  This is the Szechenyi Chain Bride with the Buda Castle in the background.  The castle is now used for the Hungarian National Gallery.  By the way, I captured this photo with my drone.  Our visit to Budapest was part of our Danube River cruise on one of Gate 1 Travel’s boats.
