Rich in cultural and architectural diversity and settled along the confluence of three rivers and the coast of Lake Michigan, Milwaukee provides endless opportunities for talented photographers. Through their unique images of Milwaukee, natives Peter and Renee Skiba share the many sides of an historic city that is full vitality. The city"s pride in its history is reflected in numerous cultural festivals and 19th-century stone and brick architecture, while its future is evident in the gleaming modern architecture, commitment to supporting extensive visual and performing arts centers, and revitalizing commercial and residential neighborhoods. Known as the American brewing capital and the home of professional teams and enthusiastic fans, the Skiba"s have captured the love of sports in the region, from skating and skiing to fishing, sailing, and car racing. Amidst all of the city"s activity, these images still reveal a metropolitan area that blends with wonderful green spaces gardens, and natural settings.
