Living in the old west end gives us lots of opportunities for great photos. The glass pavilion at the Toledo Museum of Art is quite a beauty, and capturing it on film is always fun. Click the photo for more sunset pics of the museum, and remember to always look twice!

Toledo Museum of Art Friday Performance 3

Toledo Museum of Art Friday Performance 3, originally uploaded by MTaylor Devicious.

A fine September’s evening and a fine Friday for a night out at the museum. There was a band playing on the front steps of the entrance to the museum. Wine was being served and good times were had by all. haha enough of the imagery. Anyway, the night lighting of the band was perfect and this shot makes our hometown museum look pretty inviting.

Marina District Sunflowers

DSC_0068, originally uploaded by MTaylor Devicious.

It was a beautifully overcast evening in Toledo. We noticed the new road leading to the marina district had just been opened up to the public; so off we were. The view wasn’t all that spectactular. The muddy maumee to your left, the belittling bridge straight ahead, and the ever so beuatiful abandoned factory to your right. But we definitely appreciated the view of the city from there. The patch of sunflowers was an unexpected outcome, check out the photos there are quite a few interesting flower/city combinations.

Ok, this one is another vintage fake. We were driving by a garage sale when I took this shot. My mom drove the same thing when she was younger, so it caught my eye.

Double window view of the city

Taken inside of the old Churchills food storage plant by the Erie Street market. You can see downtown though the windows on the second and third floors, and it’s an amazing view! Click the picture to see photos from inside the old warehouse, and check out our other cool finds!

Siegles on Bancroft

Siegles, originally uploaded by presidentadow.

This once family run deli in Toledo now represents what happened to most of the great stores that made up downtown. It sits empty, for sale, down the street from foreclosed homes, burnt buildings, and obvious illegal activity occurs every night. While there’s not much hope for the future of this place, it does make for an interesting point in time for photography, much like the people photographing urban Detroit.

It’s not 1971

But it is Toledo. This is a shot of Allison and our friend Lucian Townes, with a 1971 Buick in front of a mid-century house on Nantucket Road by the Franklin Park mall. Click the photo to see more from the shoot, and check out Lucian’s music here: http://www.myspace.com/luciantownes
