Arrived @ 11:00 AM
Departed @ 6:30 PM
268 photos taken in 7½ hours with as many as 43 “keepers” among them. This rendered a lazy, lazy 35.7 shots per hour with a proud 16.04% “success” rate (I hope for at least 100 shots per hour with at least a 10% “success” rate). I need to shape up on my shooing! Well… I shot video from ~11:30a-2:30p and only started shooting photos at 2:30p, so if we narrowed the math down to 4 hours and the same 43 better shots among the 268 taken, my results change to 67 shots per hour.
What Happened Today —
I continued making a documentary with my pal, Lee.
After Lee, I shopped at Eastern Market and walked from there to midtown’s MOCAD and DAM on Woodward Avenue, and I took the same street to my favorite gallery in all of Detroit, the David Klein Gallery. I would love to be shown there EVER. Hahaha.
