Time and Place: Cone jumper
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009
This photo was taken November 19 at 9:15 p.m. on Peachtree Street across from the Woodruff Arts Center. I was driving down Peachtree Street when I saw Mike Danial and his friends attempting radical jumps on their bicycles. As I pulled up, a security guard was talking to them outside the building.
I took some photos of Mike as he attempted to jump over the cone. I asked him why he was doing it. “It’s better then sitting on the couch,” he replied. I chose this photo because I liked how the flash hit him in midair and how it told a story without showing his face.

Mmm, doesn’t that look appetizing? As the man next to me so eloquently put it, “It looks like a bucket of dog shit, doesn’t it?” But it sure tasted excellent. This chili was being served up by the Vortex at the Chomp and Stomp chili cook-off in Cabbagetown Nov. 7. Having such a gigantic pot of chili meant that toward the end of the day the crowds were lining up at their booth.
Creative Loafing staff photographer Joeff Davis visited the election night parties of four Atlanta mayoral candidates, including Mary Norwood, Kasim Reed, Lisa Borders and Kyle Keyser on Nov. 3.
CL asked Atlanta to send us your photos of Pride and the images have been flowing in. Check out the new additions as they’re posted daily and see what wild and whacky experiences were caught on camera during this year’s Pride.
