For Rent by Richard G Witham
An empty corner in Downtown Clarkesville, GA. The major highway that runs through this small north Georgia town was diverted to make room for a four lane. The locally owned shops that once thrived at the center of town have fallen to a struggling economy and commerce moving out to the big, warehouse discount stores in the suburbs.

Faulkner's South by Mark Tisdale
A house in Montezuma, Georgia, that I have stalked a bit too much, but I think I finally got the image I was after. The house is being restored, but it’s still got just the right amount of decay and old dignity to make me think of how Faulkner would have described it in a story.

Spring Water at Big Spring Park by Janie Oliver
Cedartown, Georgia This spring is the second largest natural limestone spring in the southern United States. It produces four million gallons of water per day and provides water to 10,000 people. The original settlers who moved into this area of northwest Georgia centered their activities around this spring, calling their town “Big Spring”. In 1852 the spring and adjacent land was deeded to the newly charted town of Cedartown. The spring has been turned into a park. The historic marker for this park reads: BIG SPRING PARK / Asa Prior, born in Virginia about 1785, pioneered into this valley and purchased a large tract of land including this spring and Cedar Creek in 1834. In 1852 he deeded the spring and 10 adjacent acres to the City of Cedartown. Another pioneer, Mr. Walthall, established the Walthall Indian Trading Post near the spring. Indian young people danced their corn dance under the cedar trees. Cedar Valley Garden Club beautified the park. A shrine was dedicated to the memory of Sen. William Julius Harris, whose funeral was held in the park, April 21, 1932. / 115-6 Georgia Historical Commission

Modern Day Covered Bridge by Janie Oliver
This bridge is 150 feet long and 36 feet wide. It was built in 1997 by APAC and is open to the public. It’s truss is styled with decorative lattice. It goes over Mill Rock Creek. Formerly known as Haralson Mill Bridge, it is not historic, but it exemplifies the interest the public still has in covered bridges. Originally designed as a pre-stressed concrete bridge, county planners decided to make this bridge a landmark, adding a large wooden superstructure and rock facing to the underlying concrete bridge. Total cost of the redesigned bridge: $880,000. Concerned about the possibility of fire, this bridge is equipped with cameras, smoke detectors, and a sprinkler system.

Lindale Grist Mill by Janie Oliver
The Lindale Grist Mill is located in a small town of Lindale in Northwest Georgia. In 1896 Massachusetts Mills opened a new mill in Lindale, Georgia. The mill produced 1/7 of all textiles in Georgia. 1,393 people were employed by the mill in 1903. In 1926, the mill was sold to West Point Pepperell, giving the community and the school the name, Pepperell. At the time the country was in the middle of a debate on child labor. Children as young as twelve (some say nine) were working the same weaving and spinning machines as adults were and at the same conditions that the adults were. Many people thought that the children should not be working at the conditions that they were.1 In 1933 A few mill employees built a wooden star lined with lights to hang between the two smoke stacks at Christmas. Little did they know that this was the beginning of a very big tradition in Lindale. The star was hung between the two smoke stacks every year during the holidays.

About This Group
Mission Statement
This group’s mission is to showcase the diversity and beauty that personifies the beautiful state of Georgia. As the largest state east of the Mississippi River, Georgia has a wide range of photographic opportunities from idyllic scenes of rural America in the south to picturesque sites of the gold rush era in the Appalachian Mountains to the north.
If you are a visitor to this group, then you probably know that Atlanta is the most famous city with its world’s busiest airport, world’s largest aquarium, and civil war history. However, you might not know that Georgia has 100 miles of coastline dotted by undeveloped and pristine islands with the famous Cumberland National Seashore as a shining crown of ecological preservation. Providence Canyon near the town of Lumpkin in the middle of the state covers 1,000+ acres with 15 separate canyons that have colors that can rival the big one in Arizona.
From Lake Blackshear’s 8,700-acre shoreline recreation area in southwest Georgia to the tallest cascading waterfall this side of the Rockies at Amicalola Falls in the north Georgia mountains, the photographic opportunities are endless.
Whether you are a member or a visitor, enter now and prepare to be amazed by the beauty of Georgia, the Peach State. When you leave you will forever have Georgia on Your Mind.
Welcome to Georgia!
Your hosts,
Patricia & Ashlee
