    Mercer University Gallery Updated

    Memorial Day weekend brought what is likely the last of the spring-like weather to Middle Georgia, and while it lasted, I was out with the camera. This time, the beautiful, historic Mercer University campus here in Macon:

    That building is from the 1800’s. The bear — and the building in the background — are not:

    Had my black-and-white “classic camera” filters handy, too (same building in the background, FYI):

    Thirty new photographs join the Mercer University gallery. Peruse, purchase, or just enjoy.

    Visited Middle Georgia State University over the Memorial Day weekend, and have an updated look at campus:

    The Wellness Center wasn’t even there last time I was there with a camera:

    Take a look at the whole set here. Thanks!

    New: Cochran and Dublin Galleries

    Spring is fleeting here in Middle Georgia — a heat wave next week promises triple-digit weather — so took the camera for a wander. Cochran and the other Middle Georgia State University was up first:

    Cochran - MGA

    A few shots from Cochran’s downtown, as well:

    Cochran - Downtown

    See the new Cochran gallery here.

    Next up was a brief stop on Chester — single photograph posted here — then Dublin, where Martin Luther King made his first public speech, in 1944. There’s a little park to commemorate:

    Dublin - MLK park

    Downtown, alas, prominently features a Confederate monument (like so many places here in Georgia):

    We’re working on it. Meanwhile, check Dublin’s new gallery here.

    Last but not least, added a few shots to Macon’s miscellaneous gallery:

    East Macon fire watch tower

    Check the whole thing, covering almost fifteen years, here.

    Special thanks to Prof. Gerald Lucas for the continued use of his Voigtlander 21mm ƒ1.8.
