365_Show_Us_Your_Bokeh[2009]

I took this photo of the traffic heading out of downtown on the 4th of July. Although you can't really tell it's traffic, I do like how the bokeh turned out.

I've posted several daytime shots of the Bank of America Plaza in Midtown Atlanta. This is the first nighttime shot I've taken which has actually turned out. It's a bit dark, but I'm still fairly pleased with it.

Nico

Ga_Aq_Nico[2009]

This is Nico. Nico is one of three Beluga whales at the Georgia Aquarium. He lives with two other female Belugas. Nico is a flirt and he loves to watch the people who visit the aquarium. On the afternoon I took this photo I was, surprisingly, the only person at the exhibit. Nico would swim back and forth across the front of the exhibit and right up to the second level where I stood. If I moved, he moved with me.

I suppose this flirtatious nature explains the frisky activities between he and one of the female Belugas. The aquarium is hoping there might be a baby Beluga coming soon!
