Milton High School
Yesterday I posted sunrise light. Here’s the sunset light.

Alpharetta’s “new” Milton High School shines in a brisk January morning’s sunrise. This certainly isn’t an abandoned building, though the fate of the “old” building has yet to be completely determined.
Everyplace Photography?
Andrew Kantor, USA Today: New digital camera? Know how, where you can use it With all these cameras snapping around us, I started to wonder about the laws regarding using them. Where can you shoot?
