NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A local photographer's picture is revealing just how far Nashville has come in the past decade.
You may have seen that viral photo comparing Nashville's skyline today to what it looked like nearly a decade ago.
It was Penny Adams behind the lens of that shot. We show you the two photographs in the video above.
"The one thing that's resonating in the comments is the passion for the city, they desire days gone by and wish things were different, or they're happy for the growth and along for the ride," Adams said.
But for all that's now different, Adams says she hopes Nashville holds on to what no picture can ever show, something that has always made us Nashville.
"How I look at it is, the heart of the city is the people," Adams said. "And I hope that doesn't change, the sense of goodwill with each other."

You'll love her and you'll love to hate her! Meet Trashley: the bad girl of Nashville littering. She stars in a new campaign that's a throwback to an anti-litter movement from years past. Her role has been reimagined by NDOT as a fast-paced, Dukes of Hazzard-style wrecking ball of a lady. You'll find yourself cracking up as you meet the actress behind Trashley and hear how she landed the role of Queen of Trash.
