Beautiful photo! We definitely need to do some exploring in Atlanta. We went on a hike about 2 weeks ago and it was great to get out and enjoy the local state park.

I only had a little time to spend in Atlanta the last time I was there. It seems like there’s a whole slew of places to check out though!

That is absolutely gorgeous! I wish my area was as pretty. There’s nothing to love here!

You’ve found some local treasures though I’m sure. This just happened to be a cool sight we drove by and it looked cool with the lighting. On a regular, overcast day I’m sure it wouldn’t have been as appealing. Sometimes a new angle/situation is all that’s needed 🙂

That is just so beautiful! You live in such a gorgeous area!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:17 pm

Thank you. It doesn’t seem like it from day to day but I have to say that blogging and focusing more photography has helped me to see things in a new way.

Wow, what a gorgeous photo!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:18 pm

Thank you – isn’t it cool how the sun was shining on just one portion of the area?!

How beautiful!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:18 pm

Thanks – we were on a way to different vantage point of the Golden Gate bridge and I just happened to spot this scene from the passenger seat!

So pretty. I love Northern California!!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:19 pm

Me too. Too bad that means higher costs of living though 🙁

Lovely view! I always try to look at my area where I live as a tourist would. I like meeting up with the Germans that come to Joshua Tree National Park.

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:21 pm

Haha, really? Are you sure they aren’t Dutch? If they are driving CruiseAmerica RVs and have lawn chairs they’re probably Dutch 😛 We don’t usually go to the city with this frame of mind but, when we did this time, we had a really great time! We need to do it more often!

Pretty!!! I love to be a tourist (both in my own city and in others)!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:21 pm

That’s so cool. I think we’re going to to have to be more adventurous from now on to discover new hidden finds!

maryann at Matthew's Puzzle July 18, 2012 - 12:38 pm

Totally agree, I just never do it myself!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:24 pm

The nice thing about changing your mindset is that it helps see the same old things but in a new way. Just slowing down and trying to see it from the view of someone that was taking a vacation in the area for the first time is pretty neat! It also doesn’t have to be a whole day. Just going taking a walk down the street with a camera can make a huge difference! One time, my parents-in-law brought home some amazing pictures – know where they took them? Around the block that we lived on!

It is just so beautiful!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:25 pm

Thanks – the view was just so breathtaking!

Crystal July 18, 2012 - 2:41 pm

Such a neat picture. Many years ago, I strolled through my downtown with a friend and took pictures of whatever we could find. I need to do that again.

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:25 pm

Oh? Did you discover anything new that you never noticed before?

Henrietta July 18, 2012 - 3:56 pm

Gorgeous shot! We haven’t been exploring this summer like usual! Hopefully we will get out and about once fall rolls around with the cooler weather!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:26 pm

I hear ya! This weekend was great weather but doing anything out in the sun meant possible sun damage… I think we’re saving our traveling bug for the fall as well.

Jen July 20, 2012 - 9:18 pm

What a view! I love playing tourist in my own town. Have fun!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:27 pm

That’s great to hear. This was really one of the first times we done this and I quite liked it 🙂 We usually complain about the tourists but it’s fun to flip sides and be tourists ourselves.

Kathy July 20, 2012 - 9:38 pm

ohh… that is pretty!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:28 pm

Yes, the sight really took us by surprise! I’m so glad we had our big camera with us!

Brandy July 22, 2012 - 11:05 am

Beautiful! Love this picture, what a wonderful view!

TerriAnn July 22, 2012 - 11:29 pm

Thanks – I love it. The view was totally unplanned as we happened to be driving down a different road. The lighting just made the scene pop!

This is such a great shot.
