This pigeon's treading on dangerous ground!
Knoxville, Tennessee as seen through Hope's eyes and her Nikon Coolpix (& iPhone) snapshots
Knoxville Daily Photo will post one photo per day taken from the Knoxville/Knox County, Tennessee area. Knoxville is the city of my birth, the place where I work, and the largest city near our hometown. It's a wonderful community in which to raise our family. It's really a beautiful place . . . . at least I think so.
I am not a professional photographer; I call myself a point & shoot photographer. I have had a genuine love for and interest in photography since childhood. My camera is a Nikon Coolpix S600 ~ which I love for many reasons that I won't list here. Sometimes I use my old camera which is a Nikon Coolpix 5900.
Photography is something that I enjoy immensely. My photographs & albums are treasured above all other material things I own. The memories that are captured and preserved through my camera are so precious.
I am glad that I have discovered City Daily Photo and started a photo blog. It's an honor to share my little corner of the world with those who find themselves here. Enjoy looking around my blog, and welcome to all who visit.

"With gratitude and great pleasure I would like to pass the award to these photography bloggers:
Hope of Knoxville Daily Photo. Hope can squeeze images out of her Nikon Coolpix that will astonish you. The photographs of her kids capture the essence of childhood and a mother's love with the same poignancy and joy of the paintings of Mary Cassatt..."

Fantastic photo, where is this, in Knoxville? We just got back from there last weekend- my hubby is a K-town native and all his family still lives there. That's why I started following your blog. Where is this handsome cowboy located? We will look for him next month when we go to visit again.
Hi Sandy,
Thanks for the kind words and following my blog. This sculpture can be found on Gay Street. We were walking north on the right sidewalk towards the Mast General Store.
I haven't been able to post daily, lately. So my blog has been neglected somewhat. :(
Thanks for the info. I was actually talking with my sister-in-law last weekend about going to the Mast General Store on my next visit. I've never been to that part of Knoxville before, we talked about going to Market Square since I've been dying to go down there. My in-laws live off Tazewell Pike, so we don't go downtown often. But I will be sure to go and find the cowboy!!
Cute photo. I like the angle here...the pigeon does not seem too concerned, though. That's quite a sculpture!
Cute shot!
In danger of get squished!
LOL! He better be careful!
LOL, he looks curious! Great shot Hope! How have you been?
Ah the things pigeons do - is the statue hoping to get its own back.
