Downtown Knoxville Sunsphere Photo by Georgia Haley Amphitheater Reflecting Pool Fountain Art Print

Photo taken by: Georgia Haley (Gems by Georgia)

"Could the eager hands of a child weave light into a tapestry, capturing the dance of day on water and glass?"

In the bustling heart of Knoxville, beneath the golden sphere perched like a crown above the city, a young girl, no more than ten, set out to capture the essence of her hometown's pride. This girl, with eyes wide with wonder and fingers carefully adjusting the camera settings, prepared for her first solo flight into the world of photography.

The Sunsphere, a beacon of innovation, towered above her, casting reflections on the still pool below. The Amphitheater's white canopy, with its gentle slopes, beckoned to her artistic senses. Armed with her camera and a heart full of curiosity, she navigated the complexities of mid-day long exposure photography, a task that often bewilders even the seasoned.

Her father watched, heart swelling with pride, as she captured the water's gentle cascade and the sunlight's playful glint on the orb above. The taste of sweet Southern ice cream, the sound of water meeting water, the smell of spring in the air – they all infused her senses as she pressed the shutter.

This photograph, her creation, was more than a play of light and shadow; it was a statement of her vision, a declaration that with proper education, patience, and passion, even the ticking hands of the clock could pause in admiration. It was her first photograph, her own edit, her unique view of the Sunsphere, Amphitheater, and reflecting pool. It was incredible, this act of photographing Knoxville, a beginning, and a promise of more to come.
