Went to Stone Mountain for the laser show with Lauren, Kari and Matt.  I hadn’t been in over 10 years and wanted to see it again and despite plans to see it last year I wasn’t able to because of rain.

We got to the park early and walked up the mountain, me being dumb decided to bring my lenses with me.  Thankfully I didn’t bring my telephoto because that would have just been stupid.

We got to the top of the mountain just as the sun was hitting the golden hour and I was able to get some nice stuff of the Atlanta skyline, granted it was a bit far away for the gear I had with me, but oh well.

Part of a nasty gum tree at the bottom of the walking trail up the mountain.

Kari, right, and Lauren enjoy the view from midway up the mountain.

Kari had just come from work and borrowed my socks.

This one seemed appropriate.

Atlanta, where the playa’s play.

Confirming to the audience, that the Civil War is in fact over.  He broke his sword to prove it.
