For those who are curious, the website is HERE.
Mr. Henry Ford broke ground to construct his museum of Americana
in 1929, apparently with an appreciation for exquisite architectural details
in addition to his vision of assembling important artifacts of the American
industrial and cultural scenes.
This series is a brief glimpse of the mind-boggling details found as part
of the structures which were built to house Mr. Ford's fledgling collection
of impressive industrial machinery. These pictures were captured through
my recently-acquired Sigma 10-20mm ultra-wide lens.

Thanks, mo.
Indeed, a person can spend days just looking through the indoor museum,
while there are a few acres/hectares of an outdoor section to also see.
Such is why I hold an annual membership pass to the place.

Thanks!
Yes it is, and I apologise that my shots were taken using autofocus! 
My only mitigation is that it was my first digital SLR, an even then venerable Oly E-10 and back then it was hard to find a digital SLR to fit manual lenses too as that art was in its infancy! lol

I love the Henry Ford Museum. Not only is the building interesting architecturally, but it is filled with so many fascinating and beautiful objects. My only complaint is that the interior lighting is rather dim in most of the exhibits and the last time I was there I came away with many blurry pictures from camera movement.
