We chose to write about these abandoned homes.  The homes were taken with a straight on angle.  Most of the yard is showing in both images.  These images don't seem to be edited.  The homes were located in empty neighborhoods.  These images seem to convey a feeling of depression and giving up.  It illustrates the city decay of Detroit.  We also get a sense of how quickly people can lose their wealth and prestige.  Some of the homes in the blog are very big and could have been beautiful, but have fallen into ruin.
