Nice photos, Janrey! Thanks for the link to your gallery. How do you like your camera now?

Thanks to everyone for the kind compliments. I hope these photos will help you decide to visit Greenville someday soon!

Below are a couple cold winter night shots:

This is part of Court Square:


This is The Terrace at RiverPlace, a brand new mixed-use building along the riverwalk and Reedy River. I thought the "Bounce" (ad agency) sign was pretty cool:


This was formerly the under-utilized City Hall Plaza, currently under construction to become a mixed-use building with a Marriott hotel, offices, retail, and new plaza:

Below are several photos from today's annual Carolina First Reedy River Run, which had 4000 participants, plus thousands more spectators. It was a great event once again! Most of my photos are from the 10k race. Enjoy!

And there off!

The Luna Rosa gelato place is great! Went the other day, and it was the first time I've had gelato. I guess it's essentially ice cream, but so much better (and healthier, so I've heard).

I love my camera. If you didn't look, take a look at the recent trip to Las Vegas/Grand Canyon. Though I'll never compare to you I was amazed at the zoom on this camera. I took pictures of the Colorado River from the top of the Canyon and they looked like I was just a few feet above.

Janrey - Do you have a link to those Grand Canyon Pics? I would love to see those.
Thanks!

Loved the Vegas and Canyon photos, Janrey!

Also really loved the shots along the Monterey coast.

These photos of Greenville are amazing! The downtown area looks so green and lush, and just plain perfect. I can see myself strolling along with the dogs and a cup of coffee.

I wish it wasn't a 10 hour drive from MI. This is exactly the type of town I'd love to live in someday. I'm not sure the pets could handle that long of a trip though. Not to mention my wallet for all that gas!

Grrrr, why can't Greenville be closer? lol
