The main waterfall at Fall Creek Falls State Park in TN.  At 256 feet, this is the tallest waterfall east of the Mississippi River.

These big colorful guys disappeared for a few months and were back for a few days!  Found near Browns Creek behind Creative Caffeine Studio.

A different view of the Cumberland River just past downtown Nashville a few minutes after sunset.

Located on the Cumberland River, just outside of Nashville, is the Waterworks Intake Tower, often mistaken for a lighthouse.

The historic Ryman Auditorium… black and white just makes sense!

Many more pics coming… Amanda and I had a wonderful time in Chattanooga last weekend.  This amazing rock formation is found in the cave to Ruby Falls, inside of Lookout Mountain.

What a great find!  Right on the edge of Lookout Mountain.

Downtown Nashville on the left… East Nashville and the stadium on the right.

This beautiful city looks great in black and white!

Situated in downtown Nashville, just off interstate 65, commuters pass by a group of buildings that offer only small clues to their past prominence. Barry Walker, the present owner of the buildings, quietly inches his way, restoring the buildings to their prior glory.

The main building was constructed in 1881 as “The Phoenix Cotton Mill” also known as the Nashville Cotton Mill. By 1910 the building was vacant.

Peaceful slumber!

I quickly shot this pic while at the stoplight and got the hell out of there!

A few duck made there home at our swimming pool last year.

Taken a few months back, I just got around to working on this scan of an abondoned shed down off of Nolensville Rd south of Nashville.  I think I was shooting on some cheapo Kroger film that my girlfriend got for about a $1 for 4 rolls… actually turned out some nice pictures!

Not indicative of the town itself, here are some of the eye sores (and a few that don’t hurt) in Mattoon, IL. Taken on Easter Sunday Morning.

Priceless shot Amanda and I discovered while driving through some of the less traveled parts of downtown Nashville.
