Green Neon
This is a shot of the west side of 'Prairie House', the nearly mile long office building at Domino's Farms in Ann Arbor, MI. The building is done in the style of Frank Lloyd Wright and is very low and long. At night the building is illuminated with long stretches of green neon. It's very striking, but difficult to photograph. I took this shot about an hour after sunset and decided to play with the lens zoom during the exposure. I like the way the green neon created sort of a translucent plane which cut across the image. One thing to note, the tower structure which appears in the right portion of the image is actually a model of a building which was never built. It stands about 20 feet tall or so. The structure itself is quite unique, as is it's site. Surrounding the building are fenced in areas with long horn cattle and American bison. The building itself boasts a long copper roof and was designed by architect Gunnar Birkerts.
