Though Atlantic Photo has been on Spring Garden since 1942, the current store looks a little different these days. “We’re a combination of two stores in one,” says owner Brian Griffin. “We target the consumer and professional.” Atlantic Photo can provide for all your digital camera needs as well as, on its second floor, canvas printing and professional services. Plus, it’s the only place in town to buy a good quality telescope, says Griffin. Observing the stars has long been an interest of his, hence the array of telescopes, ranging from those under $700 to the pricier ones with a GPS that know where they are on the planet as soon as they’re turned on. 5505 Spring Garden, 423-6724
