As well as rearragning the layout of our small one bedroom condo, we’ve also been going through our extensive photograph collection to find prints to, well, print and frame and hang on the walls. Alas years and years of shooting on web format (640×480) has bitten me on the ass, so since mid-October we’ve been shooting in much higher resolution.
So today I decided to go downtown and reshoot some shots I had previously taken and thanks to the advise of the Atlanta Flickr group, I ended up going to the 74th floor of the Westin Peachtree Plaza, the second tallest hotel in the world no less, and taking shots of the awe inspiring and bowel loosening view.
Now I hate heights, so the express glass elevator on the way up really set me off, luckily the public viewing platforms on the inside are actually set back from the glass. One day soon I’ll head back up there, I imagine it’s a great view at dusk/night time.
