I really enjoy your photographs. The aerial view is a very interesting perspective.

That Tim Creek subdivision accross from dorman is going to be insanely large.

More photos will be coming in a week or so.  I've been out of town and haven't had the opportunity to fly.  Anyone have any special requests?

I'd like some photos of Cedar Springs area and then the big rock quary in Pacolet.  Most folks don't know how big that thing is.  Then you could fly up the Pacolet river and take afew photos of the Glendale/ Converse area , maybe a shot or two of the development around Hillcrest then move on to some shots of Lake Blalock/ and Lake Bowen area.  All or some of these woild be great.   Have a great day in the air.

Intersection of Reidville Road and Oak Grove Road on the city's growing westside.



Intersection of I-85 and SC-129.  Bottom center is the site of the new Addidas Distribution Center.  In the backround is evidence of western Spartanburg County's burgeoning industrial landscape.



Looking south on Blackstock Road toward Roebuck.  New subdivisions are popping up all over the place in this area.
