Thanks for posting! This one really shows the extent of the Shops of Buckhead project.

Fantastic shots!

Now I just wish someone would photoshop one of the aerials with future projects in their appropriate locations....

Very cool, some of those areas almost appear to be toy villages with the random haze.

Wonderful Steve, I guess you and that camera are getting to be good buddies. I was a bit surprised by all the green too. Thanks.

...except you. i can't get over how annoying some forumers are.

p.s. the haze is actually jet exhaust...it annoyed me me quite a bit interfering with lots of otherwise great shots. but it did give some cool effects in others.

How I wish I could afford to live there, especially nice areas like Buckhead. I stayed in a hotel in Buckhead once, and loved the area.

These shots are incredible, Steve! I've flown in and out of Atlanta quite a few times over the years and have never enjoyed such spectacular views of the city (sitting on the wrong side of the plane, too hazy, etc.).
