When I put the 15mm lens on, I'm always looking for interesting and extreme angles.  The classic cars offered up some excellent material.

McLaughlin & Hayes Hat Co.

Milwaukee, WI

Following a visit to the McLaughlin & Hayes Hat Co. store on the south side of Milwaukee, WI, I photographed a few scenes that are paradoxical to the gentrification of this neighborhood.

A great store in the midst of a gentrifying neighborhood.

Would love to have heard the zoning hearings that allowed this land use configuration to be approved.

Looking Up

52Frames - Week 28 - In The Center

EC: 16mm Or Wider

When I put the 15mm lens on, I'm always looking up for interesting and extreme angles.  While on the hunt for this week's photo with a fellow Framer, I liked the position of these vertical elements and was fortunate that the sun was low enough in the sky to hit the center of the frame.  Cranked the aperture to f22 to produce the sun star.
