Moreland Ave. - Emily

Emily from the Clothing Warehouse in Little 5 Points takes a break in the fresh fall air and absorbs a little warmth of some vitamin D. I think all of the girls that work at this landmark vintage retailer exhibit a romantic zeal for quality vintage clothing and the time period the garments come from.

What could be more green than riding a bicycle around town? A unicycle...1 less tire equals less oil to manufacture the 2nd tire.

East Paces Ferry Rd. - Occupy Atlanta vs. Fannie Mae

Occupy Atlanta protested in front of Fannie Mae’s regional headquarters in the Buckhead community of Atlanta on Monday, November 14, 2011. The focus was on the Rorey family, whose home was foreclosed on followed by the family of five’s eviction.

Tim Franzen stood with Tawanna Rorey in front of news cameras and spoke out against Fannie Mae’s action to abruptly foreclose on the home after the family sought to modify the mortgage in order to prepare for their eldest daughter’s college tuition. Tim Franzen was greeted at the doors of the 950 East Paces Ferry building by security when he attempted to enter and discuss how they could save the Rorey’s home.

Franzen returned to the sidewalk with the approximate 25 protesters and boosted the group’s morale by informing them that their action to save a home foreclosed on by unreasonable motions from a bank or mortgage lender is the first of the occupation movements in the nation and will not be the last.

The Falcons may have been defeated, but the spirit of this couple will not be as fans filed out of the Georgia Dome into Downtown Atlanta this Sunday.

Tim Franzen - The Occupy Atlanta "_________"

Tim Franzen, 34, has dedicated most of his adult life speaking and acting out against social indifference an economic injustice. He's been labeled everything from leader, organizer, and founder of the Occupy Atlanta movement. I get the impression he doesn't care for any of these titles. Whatever label you place with Tim Franzen's name, it is apparent that the Occupy Atlanta movement would not be as structured without his passionate and persistent counsel.

Media helicopters swarmed above Woodruff Park on Friday as Occupy Atlanta protesters marched to occupy and "foreclose"  on Bank of America. This protester decided to send a signal to the media to let them know everything is ok.

Veteran's Day: Joel - A Homeless Veteran in Downtown Decatur.

I met Joel back in May when I began this blog. I was sitting on a ledge in the square, when he initiated the conversation about photography. He never asked me for a dime, and still doesn't today. I make it a point to stop and chat with Joel on each visit to Decatur.

With his Morgan Freeman voice and slight physical resemblance, Joel isn't your typical homeless man panhandling for cash.  He feels that no one owes him a thing. Joel is always dressed nicely with clothes he receives sometimes from the church or nearby thrift stores, and makes every attempt to not appear homeless to avoid conflict with the law. He separates himself from most other homeless on the street that he feels have a tendency to self destruct. He attends church regularly at Decatur Presbyterian and has a close relationship with the pastor and many of the local residents.

I have to wonder how many of the troops returning home from Iraq will be confronted with the current job market. Will the businesses like Halliburton and Lockheed Martin that so passionateley supported the troops going off to war support them at home with prosperous employment?
