Greenville Photo of the Day

[goodbye]

I noticed the lightbulb is turned on over his head.

Very nice shot, RT!

Heheheh. Yea. That was intentionally on accident.

Panoramic view from section 104 of the brand new West End Field during the May 11, 2006 game between the Greenville Drive (Boston Red Sox' low A team) and the Hickory Crawdads (Pittsburgh low A team) in downtown Greenville, SC.

The record crowd of 6,300+ witnessed the Crawdads win 18-10.

Thanks to our mothers who encouraged us to dream big!

Great shots, whitehourseview and RT! That crowd at West End Field looks incredible! Wonderful to see so many people enjoying the dream some of us have had for many years.

Great pano!!

Love the fact that the crowds are getting bigger weekly (over the ballaprk capacity). 6,300 in a ballpark with 5,700 capacity!!! A true showing of the support from Greenville. Most ballparks have their highest attendance on grand opening night and then start a slow slide......Greenville is going the opposite way! Way to go Drive.....way to go Greenville!

Like the panoramic photo, huh? Here is another from Friday night, this one from the grassy berm, late in a blow out game (Drive lost 10-18) where the only fans sticking around were the ones wanting to see the Drive's excellent Friday Night Fireworks display:

Anybody else notice that the 24 Advertisements on the outfield wall have now grown to 29? The green is slowly vanishing from the outfield wall. This is likely another side-effect of the huge crowds.

Nice Photos, guys!

I went through Springwood Cemetery over the weekend for the first time. It is a lot bigger than I realized. There is a lot of interesting sculpture on the headstones, and I recognized many downtown street names among those buried there. It's worth taking a look if you haven't been there.

^ Great photo sc smitty!

[RestedTraveler]

Nice shot, SC Smitty! There are some very interesting markers in that cemetery and some outstanding views of Greenville, too!

I really like the shadows and light reflecting from Riverplace onto main street bridge.

The bridge is really a architectural gem and it is great how Riverwalk has brought it back to prominence.

[RestedTraveler]

Nice shot, TREY! I agree with your thoughts on the reflection of light off of the RiverPlace Office Building onto the South Main Street Bridge. It is a beautiful bridge, indeed. With all of the focus I have on the Liberty Bridge and the Swamp Rabbit Bridge, I sometimes forget it's there. It's nice to be reminded what a gem it is from time to time, so thank you!

[goodbye]

I really like the landscaping under Main Street Bridge as well. Its actually quite inviting.

[gs3]

Great photo Trey! The Main Street Bridge really does show up beautifully now, with the extension of the riverwalk.

Great photos everyone! Sorry I'm not participating. This month has been crazy for me. I see a light at the end of the tunnel in June.

Excellent shots, Cap'n Prowler and sc smitty! Love the panoramic view of Donaldson Air Center and the beautiful carvings at Springwood Cemetery.
