Well-Behaved Bird
This peacock is one of several sculptures outside the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Temple. Just like every other piece carved at the temple, the detail is amazing.

Handcarved
This is the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Hindu Temple. More than 1,300 craftsmen and 900 volunteers worked on building the temple. They used more than 4,500 tons of Italian Carrara marble, 4,300 tons of Turkish limestone, and 3,500 tons of Indian pink sandstone. The stone was quarried and shipped to the craftsmen in India, and then shipped to the U.S.

Capitol View
The Catholic Shrine of the Immaculate Conception with a view of the Georgia State Capitol to the left. This was actually taken from the top level of one of the downtown area parking garages as I was headed out.

Loving, Accepting, Serving
Pretty self-explanatory photo, here. St. Mark Methodist Church is located in Midtown not very far from the Fox Theatre. The title of the post is their phrase, not mine.
