[Daily Photo] Henry Ford Academy / 亨利福特學院

This is the Henry Ford Academy (in Dearborn, Michigan) just beside the Henry Ford Museum. What beautiful architecture.

[Daily Photo] Bee and peony / 蜜蜂與牡丹花

I took this photo at the Peony Garden of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I used a shutter speed of 1/2000 sec to capture this photo. To achieve this, I set the ISO up to 640. I took many photos of this busy bee collecting nectar, and this is my favorite one. It was flying toward another flower.

密西根大學的牡丹花園內百花齊放，我在園中追著蜜蜂拍照。這枝蜜蜂正採完花蜜，飛向下一個目的地。

[Daily Photo] Beautiful tree beside the trail / 小徑旁美麗的樹木

I found this beautiful tree while I was walking along the trail in Matthaei Botanical Gardens (in Ann Arbor, Michigan). I am really satisfied with the composition of this photo. The location of the tree fits the "Rule of Thirds"; the trail on the foreground extends to the back of the tree; the location of the red barn at the background is also great.

此照片於密西根大學植物花園內的小徑上拍攝。我很滿意這張照片的構圖。大樹的位置符合井字構圖原則；小徑由前方延伸至大樹後方；遠方的紅色穀倉給照片增添了鮮艷的色彩。

[Daily Photo] Antique lathe / 古董車床

I took this photo of an old lathe (a machine tool) in Thomas Edison's Menlo Park Machine Shop in Greenfield Village (located in Dearborn, Michigan). There are many antique machines preserved in Greenfield Village and some are still working. Items in the Village such as signs are made by these old machines.

此照片拍攝於密西根州的綠野村，亨利福特集團在這裡保存了許多古老的機械。讓我覺得有趣的是，這些東西不僅僅是被保存下來而已，許多工具都還正在使用中。村中的工人刻意使用這些老機械來製造村中的東西，例如路牌。
