West Fischer Service Drive view of Ambassador Bridge & Blue Porsche

This image was taken at the junction of 24th Street and West Fischer Service Drive, looking south toward Ambassador Bridge. You can park for free on 24th Street and then reference the GPS to stand at the exact spot where I stood.

As long as it's not snowing, you can find similar conditions along the West Fischer Service Drive. Try coming in the warmer months when the weather is more pleasant.

I recommend visiting when the light isn't harsh, either in the morning or late in the day. Or, any time during the day if it's cloudy.

Try using a telephoto lens (70mm) to make the distant tower and bridge appear closer to the road in the foreground.

Get creative with your foreground subject. You could use a prop or a vibrant colored car. The pop of color will draw the eye to the center of the photo.

Walk along the West Service Fischer Drive for other interesting angles of the bridge.

Visit Michigan's oldest Mexican restaurant — the Mexican Village Restaurant for some authentic cuisine.
