Greenville Photo of the Day

[NYTransplant]

Absolutely great shot RT!

Maybe we should vote for the best shot of each month and post it in a different thread. This one gets my vote for August.

Great photos being posted! Love the downtown nightime shot and the McBee statue shot!

[RestedTraveler]

I love the layering and depth in that last one, NYTransplant! The Falls Place in the background with the CVB Info-to-Go kiosk in the far foreground and one of the Falls Park entrance markers in the foreground! Beautiful!

If only I could have gotten the camera another 100' into the air...

From what I understand, there are RC helicopters that will allow you to do just that.

Thanks RT, I guess I wasn't looking at it from such an artistic perspective. To me it was more of a snapshot.

Great candid pacersfan218 They look like they're having a good time.

RT, Is that last one taken at the Kroc Center site?

Well. That's not a good sight. Hope that don't last long.

Brad, you should put this under the "What would you destroy" thread.

Geeezz Louise, it was 2.39 on Monday. And remember, SC has the CHEAPEST gas in the US right now. At least that was the case on August 16th (Source: USA Today)

Would be funny (in a very sad way), to take a photo each day of this same sign and watch the prices increase. A gasoline price "photo of the day".

I think SUV's are about to lose their popularity.

I saw the Spinx Station at Brushy Creek and Suber with three different sets of prices today. Stewert Spinx siad on the radio he thinks this will be as high as it gets and that in a few days it will start to come back down a bit.

[RiverwoodCLT]

I hear on the radio that it could go up to $4.00 before it all over. Saw on TV it was over $5.00 for regular in Atlanta.

[RestedTraveler]

$2.99 in T.R. at one Spinx-supplied station, $3.29 in T.R at another.

What irks me is how two stations that purchase their gasoline from the same exact source charge two differnet prices for that same gasoline.

I'll say it again: Stan and Iris Ovshinsky, WE NEED YOU NOW!!!!

RT,  Is that last one taken at the Kroc Center site?

Right Next Door to it - at the parcel between the Kroc Center site and the Camperdown site.

[Greenville]

I like that pic also, RT. Good stuff.

[RestedTraveler]

Thanks, y'all!

An article in the paper this morning shows that in Clinton is was as much as $4.99 a gallon.

Check this thread out:

Gas in your city..., Prices rising

One sign photographed in Gwinnett County, Georgia shows $5.87/gallon.

Though this picture is technically not taken in Greenville, the BMW homecoming brings tourist $ into Greenville since the host hotel is the Embassy Suites on Verdae. This picture was taken at the BMW factory this morning around 6:30AM. These cars are lined up to get the best choice of parking spaces for the panoramic photo. I got here at 5:30 and I'm halfway back in the second line.

I ended up in the front row for the panoramic.
