This is in Ann Arbor Michigan, on the University of Michigan campus.
I don't quite like how the center turned out, because of the distortion in the shadows, but it's not too bad. I also used the Liquify filter in Photoshop to make all the edges of the red bricks strait, and there's some jaggedness there. They bowed in a lot in the original.
For anyone wanting to know how to do this, you can see a tutorial here.

Very cool, I looked at the others but I think this one looks the nicest, it has a much brighter, fresher look, and the description on the first version was interesting too
This is so cool!! This one, and the Ferris State one are my favorites!
They're so colorful! I think a lot of it has to do with the sky and the focal points you chose (The UofM one had a pretty cool design in the grass/sidewalks too, and I looooove the Compass in the Ferris State one.) But as far as this image is concerned, I like the way you pulled the shadows into the center of the square. The changing leaves on this one are a nice touch.
You should print off these images and sell them to businesses in the respective areas. I'm sure they'd love them! Hell, if I owned a store pictured in that "Ann Arbor" one, I'd definitely buy one of these prints and hang it on the wall. It's just so cool!
I actually printed the Ferris one off and put it in a cafeteria on campus. Seems people liked it, since I got a few comments about it. I think it's still there too
So I might turn these into prints on dA, thanks for the suggestion
