Woodlawn Cemetery in the fall
One of my favorite places to photograph in the fall is Woodland Cemetery in Detroit. This is where Detroit's prominent citizens are interred. This Sunday morning was a great time to visit. It was close to 70 degrees and sunny. This makes my fourth year visiting this site.
Ford Dam & Huron river
The last few scenes of fall.
I took these photos this weekend along the Huron River and the Henry Ford Dam in Ypsilanti Township, MI. The dam was built by Henry Ford to provide power for the factory in Ypsilanti. Old Henry was ahead of his time. Ford did not want to depend solely on coal to power his many plants. He build plants in what was the country back in the 1930’s and that allowed the local farmers to continue working their farms while working at the plants. Ford Lake, located off I-94 by the Ypsilanti exit, was created by damming the Huron River.
