Ruins of Detroit.. Magnifique!

De si beaux bâtiment avec une si riche architecture! Mélancolique & saisissant! Que d'émotions! So much history, art and emotion is capture in theses photos! All the photography was done by Yves Marchand & Romain Meffre. These two AMAZING French photographers beautifully capture the fragility of things.. It breaks my heart to think that such buildings would be left abandoned but the result also inspires me sooooo much! Is that weird? I would LOVE to do a fashion shoot in some of theses locations! Ana, Joanne.. Road trip??

We climb to heaven most often on the ruins of our cherished plans, finding our failures were successes. Alcott, Amos Bronson
