This weekend I walked around Ann Arbor with an umbrella in one hand and a tripod in the other, desperately trying to shield my camera from the torrent of rain. I had always wanted to capture long exposure shots and thought this was the perfect time to try it out. As I walked through familiar streets, I realized that though I’d been skimming through the scenery every day, I never actually looked closely at it. This little excursion showed me there is always a new perspective to even a seemingly mundane little city.
