Interesting piece on Detroit, complete with sharp contrast photos (rich versus poor) taken from the air. No article on the motor city is complete without full color pictures of urban landscapes in various stages of blight; still, close ups of broken down buildings and makeshift farm plots in the back yards of Detroit's poor paint a starker picture of how a great city can collapse. There is something impersonal about pictures of landscapes from above.
