The Ambassador Bridge connects Windsor (Canada) to Detroit (MIchigan, USA). There is also a tunnel nearby (a mile or two?) which you can also use.

Ambassador Bridge from Michigan Central Station

Ambassador Bridge
This was taken from Michigan Central Station (Roosevelt Park) just off of Michigan Avenue in Detroit. You can see the Ambassador bridge in the distance. This is a slightly brightened version of something I think I’d done a little HDR tweaking to. Actually, the filename revealed that I “enfused” it, which is something along the lines of HDR, in that it looks at several different photos (some light, some dark) to make portions of the picture clearer.

Under the Ambassador Bridge

This was taken on the Diamond Jack boat tour of the Detroit River. I think this was the tour from Wyandotte, it goes just a little north of the Ambassador Bridge and then turns back around.

Diamond Jack has great boat trips on the Detroit River. I think they run from Memorial Day to Labor Day on Thursdays to Sunday. The ones from downtown Detroit start at Rivard Plaza right by the carousel and the ones from Wyandotte start at the Bishop park. I think they do two a day at each location; the Detroit ones are the same, the Wyandotte has a north tour and a south tour.

Detroit River Sunset

I’m thinking that I took this from Belle Isle (probably at Sunset Park), but I’m not 100% certain (wish I had the GPS in my digital SLR).
