In October 2014 I began posting a photo every weekday morning with the hashtag #GoodMorningAtlanta. The goal? To inspire, enlighten, or just plain help others start their day with a smile. See each week’s photos by clicking on the #GoodMorningAtlanta category, and view the daily photo by following me on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.
One of the crown jewels of the city of Atlanta is its botanical gardens.
And one of the crown jewels of the botanical gardens is its holiday lights display.
I do not normally go wild for holiday cheer, but here I make an exception. The display is elegant, ornate, and timeless, with unique experiences to be found every year. Here are some photos from this year’s display, which just opened this past weekend.
Monday, 11/17/14: even before sunset, the stars are shining
Tuesday, 11/18/14: two lights in focus, with thousands more on display
Wednesday, 11/19/14: the Earth Goddess, with its hair shining bright
Thursday, 11/20/14: truth, from the Atlanta Botanical Gardens (and a ladybug)
Friday, 11/21/14: the tallest building in Atlanta peeking over the holiday lights
