Coca-Cola - Downtown Atlanta

Washington, DC--I am home, having flown in this evening. But, I had lunch in downtown Atlanta and walked around for a bit before leaving the city. Atlanta is not only home to CNN but Coca-Cola and quite a few other large corporations. It was a very brisk and cold walk, but I had a chance to snap some photographs. This one was taken in a well-known and historic area of downtown called Five Points.

A Coca-Cola sing in its hometown has a peculiar flavor. Excellent cityscape and beautiful sky.

Great shot! I love the way the buildings on the left seem to curve into the Coke sign. I also like the contrast between the sign and the sky.

Hay que ver como destaca el rojo del anuncio con el azul del cielo.

El bosque por el que me preguntabas es una chopera que hay en un pueblo que se llama Micereces de Tera, cerca de Benavente (Zamora).

Indeed a nice play of colours - also quiet a challenge for the mind, to see so many straight lines and something round.

A wonderful Friday for you.
p.s.: thank you so very much for your comment !

from your angle, the logo was just screaming red, perfect backdrop against the blue. ^0^
and yes, i like the angle from where you're standing when you took this one.

I was a photographer and photo editor for publishing companies while doing freelance work for local and international media outlets.

I was born to a Venezuelan mother and a Belize-American father, some of my earliest memories are of hurrying through airport terminals with a camera around my neck. I was raised in Brazil and Venezuela, and I am fluent in Spanish and proficient in Portuguese.
