WOW!!!! Just awesome!

You just simply capture well the Atlanta that I know - the realness of it. The places that residents enjoy - and not just the Chamber of Commerce shots which are nice too.

I love your photography. I could look at it all day. I remember your Fall photos from Piedmont Park awhile back which highlighted the beauty of the change of seasons in Atlanta. I sure do hope you post again.

Well done!

Very nice pictures of Atlanta, very varied shots. Enjoyed this long phototour. Thanks for sharing.

Atlanta looks very dynamic. I like it, I wanna visit it someday, I hope...

Bring us more pics of Atlanta, please.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

What a wonderful montage of the City! Please continue to post any/all pics you take.

And how cool that you captured Baton Bob while you were out and about!

Thank you and you have a good memory regarding the Piedmont Park photos. Next week I hope to post a Savannah thread and maybe you'll enjoy that.

I spend a lot of time out on the streets of our city so that's a great compliment in saying I capture the realness of it.

Thank you and I hope to post more in the future. If you do visit I hope you find it to be a city to your liking. Atlanta is pretty vibrant city especially in Spring and Fall when the weather is best.

Thanks. Haha if I posted everything I had shot I would get banned I'm certain. However, I will try to do more Atlanta threads and maybe some other cities too.

And yes, I still see Baton Bob from time to time prancing about Midtown.

Fantastic set! Atlanta's a cool town. A bit surprising at how homogeneous the city's hipster set appears to be, though. Minneapolis or Portland I can understand, but I would've figured being Atlanta and all, that there would've been a large black presence.

BTW, dunno if any of you guys read Monocle, but last month's issue had a pretty good article on the Green Belt and its revitalizing effect on nearby communities. Worth checking out.

Well, actually, many black skins may be at work while (sometimes lazy) hipsters enjoy their easy lifestyle... I'm kinda kidding, but then only kinda.
