Atlanta’s Famous Varsity restaurant is a landmark and a classic old drive-in restaurant with nearly 80 years of history. The world’s largest drive-in is a second home to those coming to see Georgia Tech play and one of the many Icons of Atlanta, capital of the south. Great print for Atlanta’s residents, visitors, and Georgia Tech alums all over. Awarded Best Use of Color / 2006 My Atlanta Competition / Atlanta Celebrates Photography
Atlanta’s Midtown skyline, a constantly evolving skyline, which from Piedmont Park appears to blossom from a forest.
A photo of another Atlanta area Icon, the laughing skull in Little Five Points, part of the Facade of The Vortex. This landmark image is a people pleaser for both local residents of this artsy neighborhood as well as visitors.
Another in my series of photos depicting Atlanta’s Icons. The King and Queen Towers, as they are known locally if unofficially, are actually part of the suburban landscape, visible from both the I-285 perimeter and Georgia 400 expressway, they stand in the city of Sandy Springs. They have the distinction of being the tallest suburban buildings in the USA.

Atlanta’s landmark theater, the Fox on Peachtree Street takes center stage in this original photo of this Atlanta Icon. Vivid blues and reds make this one an eye catcher. Part of a series of Atlanta Icons I’m working on…
What’s beyond is always just out of sight and out of reach… Krog Street Tunnel / Atlanta / Georgia / USA
One of the office tower’s in downtown Atlanta. I love the architecture of this building. It’s reminiscent of art deco. Built in the early 1990’s, but given the style, it’s hard to easily place it. The angle in this photo was achieved from a neighboring observation deck. From this vantage point, 191 Peachtree Tower appears to loom far above the skyline, but of course if viewed from other directions, it’s one of many towers that make up the downtown and Midtown skylines.

Little Forgotten Angel… Historic Oakland Cemetery – Atlanta, Georgia
I was commissioned to do this piece for an upcoming exhibtion here in Atlanta entitled “The Zodiac Show” – which will feature 12 different artists depicting their astrological signs. / Rather than portray Taurus the traditional way as a bull or Minotaur, I chose instead to focus on the earthy qualities of the sign and it’s ruling planetary influence – Venus.
A scene from Atlanta’s infamous Krog Street Tunnel, near historic Cabbagetown (an old mill town in the heart of the city). This nearly century old underpass is home to evolving graffiti murals.

Spring Dogwood blossoms captured the light this afternoon along Peachtree Dunwoody Road. Atlanta is famous for its spectacle of color each spring, and Dogwoods are definitely one of the highlights. /
Location – Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, Atlanta Georgia, October 5th 2002. To be totally honest, I didn’t even notice that guy sitting alone gazing out the window until after I checked out the shot at my Departure Gate some time later. All I could see as I walked by was all this orange light pouring in. So I stopped & fired off a shot…if you are that guy, I owe you a pint, without me even seeing you, you gave the shot even more impact! No post photo processing at all apart from the rather obvious square crop.
Taken in Atlanta Georgia Aquarium.
This is the Atlanta Zoo’s baby panda Mei Lan. Isnt she the cutest. I converted to Black and White and then used and old style filter for texture. Nikon D80 / 55-200mm Tamron Lens / Focal length 75mm / 1/80 / ISO 100 / F/8 Sold as Card 50% of the proceeds from this sale will go to www.worldwildlife.org/pandas Facts: / Giant Panda / Ailuropoda melanoleuca / The giant panda is a National Treasure of China and a symbol of the world’s endangered wildlife. About 2,000 giant pandas survive in the wild, primarily on government-protected reserves in the mountains of central and western China. Pandas have the most specialized diet of all bears; they rely almost completely on two species of bamboo that grow in the mixed forests of these regions. This scene is set in the Wolong Reserve, which covers about 800 square miles (2,000 square km) in the Wolong Mountains, in the province of Sichuan. On the mountainsides behind the two giant pandas, brown-colored stands of arrow bamboo have flowered and died. The pandas have come down to feed on a different species of bamboo, called umbrella bamboo, that grows at lower elevations. Bamboo species go through periodic die-offs after they flower. Usually, most (but not all) plants in an area are affected at the same time. In the past, pandas coped with bamboo die-offs by simply moving to a new area, as these two have. Today, their options are far more limited. Pandas Then and Now Tens of thousands of years ago, giant pandas ranged over much of China south of the Huang Ho (Yellow River), feeding on their staple diet of arrow and umbrella bamboo. In the last several centuries, environmental changes and expanding human populations have seriously reduced the area in which these two bamboo species - and therefore pandas - can live. The panda’s range now consists of discontinuous islands of forest habitat, surrounded by seas of humanity and inhospitable terrain. China has established reserves to help protect the giant panda, but without skilled environmental management, this unusual mammal - a bear that only eats bamboo - may be extinct in the wild by the turn of the century. / /

This was taken at my work. He let me get about 4 ft from him. I am sure I could have gotten closer but his sharp claws and beak scared me LOL. Yes sitting on our mailbox :) He is a Goshawk. Possibly still a juvenile but I am unsure. Taken in Atlanta, Georgia – My Atlanta Hawk / Nikon D80 / 55-200mm Tamron lense / 200mm / f/4.5 / 1/80 / ISO 100 I did crop out the numbers on the mail box other than that as is from camera. / Hope you enjoy it. /

There can be only one. You. / Are. / Fucking. / It. But only if you’re wearing this shirt, which identifies you as such.
I HOPE THIS BUILDING DOESN’T UPLOAD in the wrong direction! I hope you like the way this shot turned out. It is very difficult to drive slow in the middle of downtown, see what’s interesting & fight the wind & rain! Smiles Leilani
