Book resulted from construction of a parking structure that moved the local bus stop onto the Maiden Lane Bridge for perhaps liability concerns, providing expanded vantage before and after boarding of the Huron River below. Mostly after July, when the spring flow washes out down to one third of normal water levels, as the shore foliage reaches out for sun the summer heat. Over 100 captures from the twelve month construction, alone. Some hypothesis explored involve not only whether the Huron River, Lake and Tribe were perhaps a misnomer by the French explorers for Heron, but also whether the University of Michigan's iconic maize and blue colors where named for the corn farming and The Great Blue Heron indigenous to lower Michigan and in particular this region.

Biography
At TBI Photography founding priority remains reaching traumatic brain injury survivors in particular who to date decline medical help for fear of social stigma surviving towards an insulted brain. Millennium Wars bring home the signature traumatic brain injury from the same improvised explosive devises (IED) soldiers were ushered into, but also a resulting explosion in brain science. This is an exciting time for the diagnosis and care. Experienced help is waiting to maximize lives upon onset. Life may well change with TBI, but it doesn't have to end. Leaving it still, what you make it.
