Ghost Signs

050814

My time was fairly constrained when I was in Atlanta, so I was limited on what sorts of things I could find to photograph. I stayed near the convention center, and everything around there is new, which presented a bit of problem for a photographer who loves the old, crumbly stuff.

I did spot this nice ghost sign just down the block from the hotel; it was nice of the sign to be there for me and it made me like Atlanta a little bit more.

This is what I saw from the 10th floor elevator lobby at the Omni Hotel. I could see other things, too, like the convention center, some train tracks, and the hotel swimming pool.

But I liked this the best.

Sometimes I go to a city and think “Yes, I could live here.”

This was not one of those kinds of cities.

But, I did what I could to find something amusing to do when I wasn’t stuck in a convention center gathering up the continuing education credits for my professional license.* Naturally, the amusement came in the form of photography.

* That’s a true story: I really do have a professional license. Believe me, there’s no one more surprised by that than I am.
