An old shot of the fountain show at Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta. The best part of the fountain show are the random facts the loudspeaker will give on occasion. When I say random, I mean random. I don't remember exactly, but they're all along the lines of: "If you took all the bricks in the park, turned them into loaves of bread, and made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches out of them, it would provide lunch for all of Montanna's school children." They usually leave you looking at the people next to you and asking, "what?" Anyway, I like the shot, and it's a fun thing to check out if you're at the park in the summer.

Just to continue a theme... Friday night fireworks from a Braves game. Turned out pretty well, I think.

Photo Blog II

A cold beer to the first person that can guess where this was taken. I really love this shot. It's been the wallpaper on my phone since it was taken.

Photo Blog I

Several months ago I decided to check out the bar at the top of the Westin in Atlanta. For those that aren't familiar with it, it's one of those rotating restaurants that looks out on the city. This was one of the wall decorations. I looked up from my table and thought this was a great shot, especially since it most likely goes unnoticed as the feature presentation is, of course, the gorgeous view of downtown Atlanta. I love the lines in this photo, and the way the "IX" was captured so perfectly in the shadow.

Just Thought I'd Check In

April, huh? Has it really been since the beginning of April since I last posted? That's what it looks like. Blogger doesn't lie. Sorry for the hiatus. I will offer no excuses, I mean, it's not like you pay for this. At any rate, it's nice to be back in action. I've got a new feature I'd like to add to The Man on the Train: Photo Blogs. I realized that I've taken some nice shots over the last year or two with my cell phone camera, so I thought I'd upload them and post them for the world to see. The quality isn't great, of course, but I love the spontaneity of it. You never know when you'll get one of those moments where the world aligns itself just right for a picture. I hope to continue to post photos as I take them. Perhaps I will also add digital camera photos as well, but my cell phone is always with me and usually yields more universally interesting pictures. Hopefully I can update a little more frequently, I've got a few old ones to post over time, so please stop by again. We'll sit, drink sweet tea, talk about old times, it'll be fun. Thanks to those of you who have been stopping by anyway. Heck, I've even gotten comments on months old posts. It's nice to know you're not alone in cyberspace. Until later...
