The image to the left (source unknown) is excellent and I have one almost identical to it taken in October 1998 from the top of the Hyatt Regency in Savannah, Georgia.

My image was blank and white, shot at about midnight with a Pentax 6×7 medium format. It hangs on my office wall as a 16X20 and is a facinating image of the river walk area of Savannah, Georgia
The title of my image is “Savannah Smiles” and it really does.

The great thing about Savannah, Georgia is its charm, history and downtown riverwalk area. The dining is superb and the people of the area are amazingly “southern” in their hospitality and friendiness.

History of Savannah, Georgia begins in 1733, yes, you are reading this right!  In February of 1733, General James Oglethorpe and his crew and passengers set anchor in the Savannah River.  It was Oglethorpe that named the 13th colony “Georgia” and its first city was Savannah.

Savannah had a prominent place during the Revolutionary War and the Civil War.  Read all about Savannah.
