Atlanta Photo of the Day

[ironchapman]

Check out this shot of mine from Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park. I found a bird walking around in these little ponds and rapids set up on one side of the park.

One of the last pictures I took before my camera temporarily malfunctioned (it's working fine now, though).

I found some info on Emporis about the Atlanta Federal Savings building here.

Some old pictures of Atlanta and the old Atlanta Fulton County Stadium, with one featuring the Equitable building for Andrea.

Gators, thank you! The Equitable has me feeling all warm and fuzzy -- they don't make 'em like they used to.

Here's another shot I took of the same bird:

I made the first one I posted the background on my computer.

^Did you forget to put in the image code, IC? Because the photo is showing up for me.

Anyway, here are two of my photos, I call it "Sunday morning traffic in Atlanta...it still sucks"

What do you mean? Both pictures are showing up for me as well.

I'm just getting a blank space where the picture would be. Weird. But I have been having some problems with my computer lately, so it's definately on my end.

Edit:I fixed the problem I was having with Flickr, and that's a great photo, IC!

The Atlanta skyline slowly starting to show more of itself over the trees, coming in on I-85:

[Newnan]

I love the skyline going north on I-85. The skyline just hits you, like the emerald city. When you go south into the city, you see a little bit of the skyline at a time- that has its advantages though

[NCB]

More attempts of some different skyline shots from I-85. It began to rain literally as soon as we came into downtown, so that was pretty crappy.

Can anyone tell me the name of the area of where these buildings are located? I'm pretty sure I know, but I want to make sure

And heading towards midtown/downtown

That's Buckhead along the southern stretch of Peachtree Road.

You're right, both ways seem to have their advantages. I like coming in from the south on 85 because, like you say, the skyline just hits you.

Here's a shot of those "rapids" at Centennial Olympic Park:

An urban oasis........

Those are my thoughts.

Oh ok, thanks. I was pretty sure it was part of Buckhead, but wanted to mak sure.

[Martinman]

How's this for a Buckhead view?

[ironchapman]

That's a great view, Martinman. Did you take it?

Anyways, be on the lookout for my pictures in and around the capitol building sometime tomorrow.

I finally got a shot of the crown on BOA Plaza, even if it was through the windshield and in the rain

The angle itself in the shot is actually pretty good. It would be better if it wasn't raining.

Excellent work considering the circumstances, NCB!

Here's one I took a while back, NCB:

[NCB]

Wow, that's an awesome and very impressive shot, IC. Great job!

I think BOA Plaza, especially the crown, is one of those thing's that looks good in just about every condition, but looks fantastic on a bright and sunny day.

My Addition For the Day

[krazeeboi]

Wow, I've never seen 1180 Peachtree from that angle. Nice shot!

[Student]

^^ I discovered this site called Flickr, and there are all kinds of photographers on there with great shots of just about anything you could think of.

[Go Gators]

My Addition For the Day

Nice Shot. Thats looking East correct? So that would be Stone Mountain way in the background?
