I never took any when I was on foot. Most of these were from the first time I ever came.

I love your city, Detroiters, and I like to call it home for at least a few weekends out of the month.

Your photos of Detroit are AMAZING! Do you do a lot of aerial/cityscape photography as a hobby or professional? I was in Detroit (Windsor) for a few weeks (I ran the marathon back in October) and I love taking these kinds of photos myself, but pretty much stuck to Riverside Dr in Windsor b/c I didn't really know where to go to get any good shots...that, and that week in October was pretty gloomy. Next October (18th) if you're in the area, let me know if you want to take some photos. I'd like to find out the good places to get these kinds of shots.
