The intersection of Forbes Ave. and Murray Ave. forms the heart of Squirrel Hill, a neighborhood a mile from Carnegie Mellon's campus which is home to many students and professors. |

Coca Cola no doubt intended for this park to be used by business types, or perhaps for the students of the local university, Georgia Tech. Alas, Atlanta does not take good care of its citizens and the park is used as a place to sleep for the many homeless. And Georgia Tech students are kept from the park by a fence, or perhaps the residents of the park are kept from Georgia Tech. |

This busy intersection is in the Squirrel Hill section of Pittsburgh PA, USA. I read that some of the buildings in this view may be demolished for new development. (Made with the Gigapan beta imager robot) |

The traffic never stops:
"The utter failure to create any meaningful pedestrian environment defines the heart of Atlanta today. Every bad idea in the service of contemporary urban design came together here with a public attitude that can be summed up as 'the outside doesn't matter.'" - James Howard Kunstler |

I think there are at least seven parking lots in this one image not counting the street parking. This isn't anything amazing anymore, this is Atlanta.
I was trying to take fotos of the Dalai Lama giving a talk in the park, but - true to fashion - me and my camera gear were taken to be terrorists attempting to assassinate the Tibetan spiritual leader in exile. I cannot count the times I have been taken to be a terrorist in the US with only camera equipment. Thanks for the gigapan robot, maybe Atlanta isnt ready for it though. |

I love the sterile glow and the friendly welcome from the drones within. "Through clever and constant application of propaganda people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way around, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise."
--Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, 1923 |

Wish I could upload sound... I recorded the machines which were screaming something along the lines of, "Do not pay anyone claiming to be a parking attendant." But as the gates had long since been broken off and it was around 7AM on a Sunday, it made for a beautiful situation. |
