What makes your city famous?

[Stamp]

OK, here's mine. This is all I could come up with...

Largest employer in the county.




That's pretty much all there is here... That, and a bunch of farms.
"Downtown" is only a few blocks, and the tallest building in the town is the hospital...

I didn't really feel like driving anywhere, and if I did all I would come home with would be a picture of an empty field...

I could get some VERY cool pictures out at the airport, but cameras are forbidden...

There are only 2 reasons people come here: Work, or they live in an even smaller neighboring town and we have the closest grocery store.

I'm going to take a wild guess, and say Greenville, TX?

Well we are really NOT part of any town, but stuck in the middle of the sticks...

This is our most famous landmark which came down this fall....

I will play along. A shot of mine from a while ago. Not really the most famous thing but Washington D.C. has an unfair advantage. I just really enjoy this shot.

I live in a small town in Georgia. We are pretty much only known as a "Whistle stop" town. We are growing very fast due to our proximity to Atlanta and are becoming a true suburb, but were holding on to our small town feel as long as we can.


I took this one today. I think it came out OK. Y'all let me know what you think.

I have posted this in another thread, but here is what is best known in my town. It is an old railroad bridge crossing the river. It is a turn style bridge. The bridge turns on the concrete pillar to let ships pass.

I really like this shot for some reason. I think it's because the most important part of the image sticks out very well, and everything else is just sort of dreamlike.

I need to go take a picture of a pint of beer or a hipster or something

 

[c.cloudwalker]

Nothing.

Well, we had James Brown but he died before I got to meet him so, no photo.

This place is the pits and I'll be glad when I leave in a few months.

LOL, yeah.

I just looked Greenville up in Wikipedia and apparently it's internationally know for saddle making, but I don't remember ever seeing any saddle shops here... The small towns surrounding Greenville have a lot of them though.
