I know that I’m supposed to feature different photographers, and that it hasn’t been that long since the last time Brooke made an appearance.

I plead helplessness in the face of photographic awesomeness … and ducks.

Have a lovely weekend folks.

Gotta view it bigger … and here’s hoping that you get out and make your own footprints on Michigan’s shoreline sometime soon.

Dave was nice enough to arrange a little photo trek over to the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills to take some shots of classic Chrysler cars and the museum. Larry, Mike, and Laura also came along and it was a real fun time. Cars arent really my thing and I had never shot them before so I looked at this trek as more of a challenge and opportunity to try some new things. I think I got some good shots and had a great time in the process. Not a bad way to spend a dreary Saturday.

I didnt even pay attention to what automobile this was but I loved the grill and lines and had to photograph it. Im pretty pleased with how this turned out, in fact it may be my favorite shot I took from the entire trek. If anyone happens to know what car this actually is I’d love to know.

You can check this photo out larger, on black and see more photos from Ryan at Ryan Southen Photography. Also check out this slideshow of photos from the Walter P. Chrysler Museum on Flickr

The Walter P. Chrysler Museum is located on the Chrysler Headquarters campus in Auburn Hills. Their web site has a lot of info about the history of Chrysler including this nifty Chrysler Chronology.

Grand Rapids, Michigan … though I’m told the judges would have accepted Willie Wonka’s Chocolate Factory and Pink Floyd: The Lost Album Cover.

I think this photo does a perfect job of summarizing Spring 2008.
