These pictures of Knoxville, Tennessee were taken from the James White Parkway South Knoxville Bridge at sunset in June of '06.

I've had a nice film camera for several years, and enjoyed photography. But I recently got a Cannon ProShot1 digital camera, and have fallen in love with taking pictures of Knoxville!

This view is one of many things that are exceptionally nice about living in South Knoxville, along with affordable houses, nice older neighborhoods with big trees and it's only a couple minutes from Downtown.

From this close-up you can get a better sense of the fairly new condos that have been built on the Tennessee next to downtown. Not a bad location, eh?

Though it's a little dark, you can also see the Sunsphere in the background middle, behind the federal courthouse tower.

The large brick building on the left-hand side of the picture is the Andrew Johnson building, formerly the Andrew Johnson Hotel, where many famous people once stayed, including Hank Williams Senior, who was last seen alive at the AJ.
