This photograph was taken on February 15, 2014 by Jessica Dobbs, and proudly displays the Renaissance Center in Downtown Detroit in a beautiful shade of blue. This photograph was taken from Windsor, Ontario, and also shows off the ice on the Detroit River as well.

Jessica and I live in an area that makes it difficult to capture a scenic sunset. This is primarily due to urban development and really, just a lack of interesting vistas in our vast land of suburbia. This spring has had me craving for photography adventures more than ever. I […]
