Belle Isle Escape

This was actually taken on Bell Isle just miles from Downtown Detroit. Sometimes in order to find some beauty and nature in an urban area all you have to do is put out the effort to look for it. For anyone in the Detroit area, i would highly recommend getting out and onto this small island of peace and quiet in a noisy city. There are nature walks, beautiful sunsets, silhouetted city skylines, piers, playgrounds, open spaces, a beautiful fountain, a conservatory, and even a zoo!
