#ann-arbor — Public Fediverse posts

An aerial view of #AnnArbor, #Michigan, showing several buildings of the #UniversityOfMichigan campus. The camera is facing roughly northward. The tall, light-colored tower in the foreground (lower left quarter) with clock faces on the sides is Burton Tower, which houses the Baird Carillon. The two-storey light-colored building roughly near the center of the image is Rackham Auditorium.

found an absolutely incredible little #bakery in #Ypsi this morning! B-Cubed features unbelievable #sourdough, scones, muffins, cookies, pizzas, sandwiches, and more! I'm overjoyed to have discovered this little gem, right in our back yard! #Ypsilanti and #AnnArbor friends, please give them a try:

People sometimes tell me to put down the camera and “just enjoy the moment,” but making the photograph is how I engage with the moment. A picture isn’t like a family home movie that only matters if you know the people.

A photograph stands on its own, the same way art in a museum does. Some images connect, some don’t — and the viewer brings their own meaning to it. That’s why I keep making photographs.

I’m finally heading home to Virginia after two months in Michigan settling my dad’s and brother’s estates. On the way home, I returned to the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Garden in Ann Arbor. I last visited a couple of years ago when I needed my soul to heal, and coming back now — stronger, steadier — closed the loop on everything that’s happened since.

People sometimes tell me to put down the camera and “just enjoy the moment,” but the photograph is what brings the moment back. And even for someone who’s never been there, an image can still matter. A photo doesn’t transfer my memories — it sparks theirs. Light, color, and mood give the viewer something to connect with, even without knowing what I was going through when I pressed the shutter.

The garden remains a peaceful place for my heart and soul.

Shoutout to the time the #AnnArbor District Library published a three part text adventure a few years ago. I just think it's neat and a good intro to text adventures if you've never played one before

Can we please get an artist that’s not country next year? Maybe rock? Maybe someone like… Jack White?? 😁🎸

#AnnArbor

I’m about 2 miles from the stadium and can hear the concert. Will have to keep an eye out for the fireworks later! 🤠🎇

The dash cam video for this hit and run had been posted on the #AnnArbor subreddit, it was heinous. Glad the perpetrator seems to have been caught!

Much worse this morning. Stay safe, everyone!

Yikes, the AQI in Ann Arbor just skyrocketed to 218. Crank up those air purifiers tonight! 😷

It currently feels like 108° outside and the wildfire smoke is on the way. Looks like I’m staying inside the rest of the day. 😬

I got my #AnnArbor District Library mascot stuffie in the Summer Game shop!
