About

In April 2010, the Durham Shooting Club was created to capture images of the undergoing urban revitalization of Durham, North Carolina. The name of the club, selected by David Zuber, was intended to mock the unjustified fear that had prevailed in the previous years about visiting or moving to Durham. Law enforcement efforts, historic preservation of the Bull City, and urban revitalization were now transforming the city into a safe place known for it’s architectural character and it’s mayor’s long-term vision for the city. In early November 2011, Durham residents agreed to a half-cent sales tax for improvements in of its transit system and future rail service.

Documenting efforts to build stronger communities through the preservation of historical and infrastructural assets is a tradition that now continues in Atlanta, Georgia, with the Atlanta Shooting Club (and StreetsOfAtlanta.com).

  Your blog is exactly how you’re describing it. It has beautiful images from the environment in which you chose to live, and it is also very informative for people who can find so much wealth in simple things. The potatoes look delicious and I’ll remember not to touch them for 10 minutes before flipping them.

Hi Steve,
I came across your blog from Sydney Fong’s site. I’m a native Atlantan and the URL caught my attention. I’m also a Georgia Tech grad – Industrial Design major. I really like what you’re doing here and look forward to following.

  Thank you Cathy for finding this blog. So far I’ve been taking most pictures at the same few places but I am now gradually evolving toward more interesting places like Cabbage Town, Little Five Points and Decatur. I usually have my films developed at Showcase but I don’t like the detour involved in getting there to bring my rolls of film. Fortunately, they mail me back the results. So I have a couple of rolls that will be developed and returned to me in about a week with Cabbage Town and Little Five pOint pictures.

    No rush, glad you got them! Do you know if Walking Dead is actually filmed in Atlanta? Because if it is close to you, I would love a picture of that someday?
