Some 660 minutes of daylight made Wednesday a great day for taking pictures, a welcome promise of things to come for shutterbugs inactivated by days of fog and months of weak winter light. News photographer Jack Stubbs found an unidentified practitioner setting up his view camera and tripod in front of the pillared building at Island Park, then turned his own camera across the shimmering waters of the Huron River to the cloud-backed U-M medical complex to the west.

Peter Yates

Peter is a professional photographer who started as a street photographer in New York and went on to work for national magazines and newspapers shortly after moving to Ann Arbor in 1969.

Peter reminisces about some of his memorable photography assignments; the restaurants and music venues he misses; the friends and colleagues who helped him; and his time working in Ann Arbor -- at Mark's Coffeehouse, the Blind Pig, and the Ann Arbor Observer.
