Photographer Highlights Nashville Diversity

A new photography exhibit has encouraged Nashville residents to take a closer look at the people who live and work to make the city all that it is.

For most people who walk down the streets of Nashville every day the people they see are just a blur, quick glances and friendly smiles. But to Carter Andrews, every person is a portrait.

“I love shooting portraits. No one expects to have the photo taken when they walk out of the house. My method is I can get your picture in thirty seconds and be done,” said Andrews.

Tennessee is close to evicting Occupy Nashville

Tennessee lawmakers moved toward removing the Occupy Nashville encampment from the state Capitol with a pair of votes Tuesday in which they also amped up the threat of jail time.

Committees in the state Senate and House of Representatives each approved a ban on unauthorized camping on public grounds, setting up the possibility that the measure could clear the Tennessee legislature sometime next week.

The nearly identical measures would give Gov. Bill Haslam’s administration clearance to try again to remove the Occupy Nashville camp, though it is unclear whether it would act immediately. The bill also faces potential legal hurdles.
