Downtown Atlanta Georgia in the autumn! It's not what you'd expect!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Richard Weisser Realty

Downtown Atlanta in AutumnAs most of you know by now, I love to take fall photos! When you think of autumn photos, you usually don't head to the downtown area of a large metropolis like Atlanta.

But the seasonal color change is just enough to office the neutral steel, glass and stone exteriors of the skyline.

And the clear blue skies of fall make the photos really stand out. It's a rare combination of color and textures that doesn't exist any other time of the year.

No mountains in sight, just monoliths! I hope that you enjoy them.

Richare, those are GREAT pictures.  I especially like that second one.  We don't get much fall color in our area so I'm glad to at least see pictures of fall color.

RW,

You have a way of finding the right shot all of the time, or at least that is what I am thinking.  I can only imagine how many photos that we do not see.  Good job my firend.

Richard - Atlanta is my second home! I lived there 25 years and remember when Atlantic Station was Atlantic Steel - worked as a film producer for Jayan Films off of 14th Street. I LOVE Atlanta! Thanks for the breathtaking photos :)

I worked the NW Atlanta area for years. We had a Century 21 Office on DeFoors Ferry Road, ate at Bobby and Junes many times, and the Silver Grill on Monroe Drive was our second home! I actually worked at Georgia Tech from 1973-1976!

Richard it took a few minutes, but I then figured out the other pic was of the capitol building!  Cool!
