Eastern Market Shed 3

Since 1891 Eastern Market has been the place for Detroiter’s to buy fresh produce, meat and flowers. The renovation of  Shed 3 is phase 1 of the revitalization of this historic Detroit marketplace. On any Saturday as many as 40,000 people shop at Eastern Market. Flower Day (held in May) is one of the largest flower shows in the US attracting more than 150,000 people.

I was hired by Turner Construction to photograph the completed project which was a joint venture with Turner Construction and KEO Construction. The architect was Kraemer Design Group.   http://www.claytonstudio.com

Truck loads of produce arrive well before sunrise.

    I absolutely love your 2nd picture - I've always been a big fan of architectural photography, and appreciate the near perfect symmetry of this photo - all the way down to the glare of the lights! I've "dabbled" in it myself on vacations...there is a Helix bridge in Seattle that I tried to capture different angles of, and on my trip to Sydney this past March I fell in love all over again with the Sydney Opera House. Looking forward to seeing more of your pictures, and maybe getting new ideas for my next attempt at photographing neat architecture!

    You are getting some very saturated colour there. Are you using HDR techniques?
