batter up

If you can believe this, I took this the first week of February.
Just not around here.
This is a statue outside the Boys and Girls Club of America in Midtown Atlanta, Georgia.
Kansas City was freezing at this time, literally.

Once again, shot in Atlanta last month.  In the first couple days, it was wonderfully foggy.

Spring

The theme for this week on vfxy is "Spring" so here you go.  I shot this last Spring in Eastern Jackson County out on a country road, East of Independence--who knows where.  All I know is it's great that it's finally sunny and milder, right?  These blooms and blossoms will soon be here.

Have a great weekend, y'all.

Lichtenstein at the High II

ripples


Not that it really matters because it's potentially such a near-universally possible picture but this is from the lagoon in Piedmont Park in Atlanta, Georgia last month.

Plaza sunset


Okay, I always used to just want to put up the photography only--no descriptions--so the photos would speak for themselves.  I've changed my mind.  I think a little background sometimes, if not all the time, might be helpful for viewers.  Anyway, this was shot in the first week of March, at sunset, down just off our Country Club Plaza, at the library building.
Funny thing was, I was shooting this because I liked the sunlight on the building against the sky when all of a sudden a security guard came out and said I couldn't do that.  Crazy.  "Okay, whatever."

Toy

This week's theme on the vfxy photo blog is--again, you guessed it--"toy".
What better time than to show our city's own toys?

Happy Fat Tuesday, y'all.

Lichtenstein at the High



This is a shot of the High Art Museum's garden in Atlanta between buildings, which is also the space they put their Roy Lichtenstein piece.  I thought it made a good shot and the piece itself is a lot of fun.  I'll post more in days to come.

Midtown II


Also from Atlanta, GA.
I think this one was my favorite of the series.  This was between the condominium where I was staying and the High Art Museum in Midtown.
I was walking along without my camera when I looked up and saw this.  I immediately knew I had to come back and shoot it.

study in brown

I found this while walking in Piedmont Park in Atlanta Georgia, last month and loved it.  When I saw all the color and how different this is from what we have here in the area, I thought it might shoot well.

thinking Spring


Favorite part of town

From the Bloch Gallery of Contemporary Art, here in town, of course.  The "Theme Day" for today--for March, really--on City Daily Photo is "Your Favorite Part of Town."  I have more than one but this is certainly one of them, for sure.  I shot this when the gallery first opened in the Summer of 2008.
