Good morning, Susan. Been a weird week for weather, with lots of foggy days, then severe thunderstorms overnight Friday. The west side of Michigan got hit by deadly tornadoes. Now it looks like we’re heading into a calmer, sunny and warm stretch of weather.

Maybe a stretch of today’s theme but … Golden, late afternoon window light flows around my cat Ochie as she sits in my home studio. #BlueSkyArtShow #Flowing #Cats #Photography #GoldenLight

Good morning Susan. I hope this week is treating you well. I’m looking forward to the warming trend that’s heading to Detroit.

Good morning, Susan. I hope this Sunday finds you well. I started reading Niall Williams’ β€œAs It Is In Heaven” this past week. I’m almost halfway through it and really enjoying it. I’ll try to do a mini review when I finish it.

A man walks by a mural of a woman in a hijab painted on a building in Hamtramck, Michigan, on Saturday. Once a Polish enclave of Detroit, Hamtramck has become majority Muslim in recent years. #StunDay #StreetPhotography #Hamtramck #Murals #UrbanLife #Photography #Cityscape

Good morning, Susan. I hope this weekend finds you feeling better. I’m looking forward to a week off from teaching β€” winter break next week.

I liked the balance and visual harmony of the two revolving doors next to each other. I just had to wait for the right moment when I could capture the juxtaposition of somebody coming out at the same time somebody was going in.
