It was a fun Ann-Arbor-Nights photo hunt on Feb 26, 2013.  A mix of rain and snow made for some interesting photos, including shots of the Michigan Theater marquee and State Theater marquee.  Main Street looked as busy as always despite the weather.  I always meet interesting, fun people on these night shoots – this time John Roos, who’s always up for pictures.  Dramatic weather of any kind creates a mood around town and therefore is my favorite time to shoot stuff.
