As discussed, Detroit Funk was definately the more interesting of the two blogs we were able to read.
One thing that jumped out to me was the amount of pictures he took and what type. Most of his pictures and dark, giving in to the allusion of being forgotten. One of his posts certainly portrayed this feeling by taking photos of an abandoned school. Take note that the pictures are vibrant in color. All we see, though, is everything left behind.
What's intriguing are his captions for his pictures. He gives small observations, some quick and funny, others short and to the point.
My favorite post on this blog is the one about the Macomb County Building. It's attention catching and fascinating to see such sculptures in and around our neighborhood. The plaques, along with the author, seem to tell their own story.

I agree about the Macomb County Building. It was very interesting to look at and the pictures did seem to tell a story.
I really enjoyed that picture too (the one with Wilbur Wright). Especially the comment he makes of how sad it is that this was once a place where gifted students aspired to learn.
