Christmas in Downtown Detroit

I was able to take a few pics of the lights and scenes of downtown over the last month and wanted to share them with you. Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

Detroit River Days 2012

We were able to attend the Detroit River Days this year in downtown Detroit. The company I work for put together a company event that opened up the carnival the night before so we could bring our families down for a night of fun. I grabbed some pics of the night and wanted to share them with you (even if it's 6 months late.) All the photos were taken on an iPhone 4S with Path. I hope you enjoy!

South Entrance to Detroit River Days

Quicken Loans sponsored the event. This is all they were able to create before a big storm came in earlier in the evening. The Ren Cen sits in the background.

A severe storm pushed it's way through just before we got there. The clouds and the sunset  were in it's wake.
