Chin Tiki a la Detroit - Collecting Tiki

I have decided to spend some of my overseas earned money to travel and shoot what I really care for and so in a couple of weeks I will mount an expedition to the Chin Tiki to photograph its remnants. Too often did I regret that I did not document Tiki Temples in their fallen state, and now that Marvin Chin has passed away, it seems ever more unlikely that the Chin Tiki will be restored to its former glory. Its contents will likely be relocated to the Livonia Chin's, and since there are a few Witco pieces in there, I am looking forward to photographing them "in Situ" for my upcoming book.
