Here's one of my kid playing golf at the Candler Park Executive golf course. It used to be a pasture golf type of course. They've sort of moved towards a regular type of course but it's definitely not the velvet greens of private courses. However, it is still a very pretty setting.

Be prepared to wait for one, though.

Personally, I'll skip the wait and have one at The Vortex, also mentioned in the article (as is The EARL).

Good Atlantic Station shots.

Glad you got around the "photo Nazi" police. Did you know that technically they don't allow photography in Atlantic Station? It's considered a "private property" and the rent-a-cops that work there will jump you if they catch folks with cameras taking pics around there.

I hear all the time from folks who have been told, "You're not allowed to take photos here" by them. If you carry a real camera they tend to do it more than those they see using cell cameras. I'm still trying to figure out if the CIA must have a secret base underground there or something that they're trying to protect. LOL

Wow, I had no idea and we used a digital camera. We took a lot more photos and no one said anything. Interesting.

Default Westin windows

The story I've heard about the Westin is that something about the window fixtures doesn't meet current building codes. To replace the windows, they'll have to bring the building up to code (which basically means replacing the undamaged ones as well) So apparently the owner and insurance company are arguing over who will pay. Right now it looks like the windows are covered in plywood and painted black.

Awesome, awesome pictures here.

Where exactly is the Jackston Street Bridge ? I've always wondered where that skyline shot is taken when I've seen it on the news and various tv programs...
