When the paddle-boarder looked over his other shoulder, he amost fell off his board.  Lucky for him the fin belonged to a playful dolphin, but at first glance ——???   Taken in Shem Creek, just outside Charleston, South Carolina.

Custom House

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Construction on the US Custom House in Charleston, SC, began in 1853 and was then halted in 1859 due mostly to the Civil War.  Construction resumed in 1870 and was completed in 1879.  It is still used today by several federal agencies.

Every piling seems to be a roosting spot for a brown pelican.  Taken along Shem Creek near Charleston, South Carolina.

The Root Cellar

Architecture

This root cellar is from the 1870’s.  The only lighting for the photo was the two small upper windows on the right side of the room.  This fisheye view was a five shot blended HDR with the longest exposure being about 4 minutes.  Olympus OMD with 7.5mm lens.

I spotted this balcony on a home in downtown Charleston, South Carolina.  My eye was immediately drawn to the unusual location for a weather vane – but it does add a distinctive flair.

Brattons Parlor

Architecture

Brattons Parlor

In South Carolina, this is the parlor from the Bratton Home, circa 1840. The image was a 5 shot blended HDR taken with a fisheye lens and then straightened in the post-processing. The lighting is all natural from the windows only (there is no electricity in the home)
