Introduction

On this site, I posted a picture (almost) every day, from December 3, 2010 to December 3, 2011. Only 16 days during that period are without pictures. All but two pictures were taken on the day of the post. Sometimes the daily picture represented the day in a larger way; sometimes it was just a picture. Since I posted so often, some pictures are more interesting than others.

After one year of posting a daily picture, I posted pictures less frequently - whenever I had something worth sharing.

After two years of more casual posting, I decided to once again post a daily (or almost daily) picture in 2014.

I'm not a photographer, and most of these pictures were taken with an inexpensive digital camera. A few were taken with a cellphone camera. Click on any picture for a larger view.

Bornd and Deprted


A tombstone which has long fascinated me - I came across it when I was about 15. It's the marker of Thomas Townley, who must have been one of the earliest settlers in what is now north Fulton County, Georgia. Townley was "bornd" March 8, 1777 and "deprted" July 9, 1844. Morris Cemetery, Alpharetta, Georgia.

Abundant Life


One of the hundreds of Pentecostal churches scattered throughout the south side of Atlanta. I was struck by the contrast between the name of the church and the poverty of the neighborhood it's in. McDonough Boulevard, Atlanta.

Stalking Cat


Sorry about another cat picture so soon, but this one was too good not to post. I set the camera on the floor with a two-second delay; Jockomo had to investigate.

Beltline Graffiti Art


Coincidentally, after my post of two days ago, I came across this on the Atlanta Beltline Trail near Ponce de Leon Avenue.

Graffiti Artists


I live in the city, and there is lots of graffiti - from beautiful artwork to gang tags. I've celebrated it in this blog at times. I have mixed feelings about it, though - my reaction depends a lot on where the graffiti is and what it is. I certainly don't approve of painting on private property without the permission of the property owners.

Today I came across a group of young men painting a wall (which seemed to be quasi-public property) on LaFrance Street. It was broad daylight, and they were not making any attempt at stealth. They only agreed to let me take pictures if I didn't show any faces.
