street scene in Ann Arbor, Michigan

You know, I've walked past--and sat under--these murals for over 20 years, but it wasn't until yesterday that I REALLY saw them...and that was because I was looking at it through my viewfinder. That is one of my favorite parts of being a photographer: it opens my eyes to wonders that I hadn't noticed before.

Now I see that the mural was painted in 1984 by Richard Wolk. Who do you recognize in it?

Canon EOS 350D

Hi Patricia,
This is a wonderful picture! \/ Where in Ann Arbor is this? I use to know a lot about Ann Arbor, but since Kresgies, Woolworth and Cunningham's disappeared so did I. LOL
