Savannah, Georgia: Street Artists

By Lori Smaltz written 5/24/08 9:07 AM, published 5/24/08 9:08 AM

A photojournalism display of the creative and sometimes secretive lives of many street artists  who selectively prop their expressions into the path of tourists. 

They dot the corners of streets, squares, sidewalks and parks with their various, colorful views of living.   These folks are the true soul of the city and Savannah is their host .

Elton is a street artist trying to earn a living, he weaves palmetto leaves into beautiful roses.  He can be found on River Street along with gospel singer Karis who sang Amazing Grace in my presence for a couple of dollars.   In Historic Johnson Square there is a regular jazzy sax player and a well known local painter,  Gregory Myrick whom charged me five dollars to take his photo.   Street Artists

Well shutterbugs, I'm logged back in here after having not visited for months (close to half a year, if not over that, i think). So I hope you'll all forgive me for posting a whole buncha pics to feast your eyes on (hey... I probably won't be posting again in a while anyways). So, all I can say is that it's good to be sharing again. So enough of the talk and on to the photographs. I've catergorized them into...

You have made me look at things differently.  I'm not there yet, but I'm trying.  Please remember that imitation is a form of flattery.

I had so much fun scanning in old photos that I couldn't stop.  Once again, these are about 25 years old.

A Foggy Night in Hong Kong

By Adrian S Jones written 10/7/05 12:42 PM, published 10/7/05 12:42 PM
I love the way light plays in fog. On a recent trip to Hong Kong, I tried to capture the reasons for my enthusiasm. I took a cruise in the harbor. For Popup Linkothers the harbor was the destination.A times, it seemed the horizon was a giant bejeweled Popup Linkbracelet, and I had to get a Popup Linkcloser look. Popup LinkSanta Claus likes it here too, and you can see him year round. I wondered at the modern Popup Linkspire reaching through the clouds. I had to see what this beautiful land must look like from Popup Linkup  Popup Linkabove.

Lunchtime Walk

By placenamehere written 1/6/03 10:07 AM, published 1/6/03 10:07 AM
Went for a walk this morning among the fresh snow - which was clinging to everything in site. Took a few pictures along the way, but they weren't anything special. So, these aren't them! Instead I grabbed some older shots from a lunchtime walk around NYC... in slightly warmer weather. Enjoy!
