Ben Silver. An icon in Charleston, SC. “Classic Style… has always been our business”. Ben Silver is a gorgeous building, with the classiest of clothing. It’s very “Charleston”! I love how the light hit when I took this shot, which must have been around Christmas time, judging by the wreath!
Next time you’re in the area, pop in and check it out!

Ha ha. Talk to the hand. Another Broad Street shot with the colorful buildings, and colorful sign. Scaffolding while some buildings go through renovations. When they’re done, I’ll bet it’ll look just like long ago, yet much nicer! That’s one thing, buildings don’t lose their charm here, I think the Architectural Review Board (ARB) sees to that!

The large, grand, historic homes in Charleston, SC are stunning. Breathtaking even. Besides the cost of the home, taxes, insurance, utilities, etc. can you imagine the maintenance? I’m not sure where I was when I snapped this photo, but it appears that this home may be receiving a makeover? Look at the intricate detail. Just beautiful! You have to be able to look beyond what is there to be able to see what it could truly be. A diamond in the rough…
This home will be stunning! Catch you back here tomorrow!

There is nothing like sunlit trees against a dark sky. So dramatic. The blue in that sky is very “Marc Hanson” to me. We have one of his paintings that has that identical color and that’s what drew me in to the painting. Those two colors together are wow!
See what I mean! That dark sky and the streak of light, wow!

Speaking of Dark Skies, did you know there is an app called DARK SKY. It lets you know when it’s going to begin raining (or let you know a few minutes before), its fairly accurate, although I cannot believe I paid for it, ha ha…

Isn’t this the craziest photo of Charlie? This is what he looks like while we’re eating dinner. He sets his chin on my leg so I don’t forget he’s there, waiting, waiting, waiting for anything. Since he’s on a special diet, the only “special” treats are different veggies and fruits. Many more veggies than fruit for sure. This dog does get a few pasta noodles if we have that for dinner, but only if I remember to set them aside BEFORE I put anything on them. I don’t think anything makes him happier… well, maybe lettuce. This dog LOVES IT!
So… this is my beast, every night at dinner saying DON’T FORGET ABOUT ME… no worries Charlie, I promise!

STUNNING, isn’t it? Tulip photo taken with iPhone in sunlight with black car as backdrop – he he… I’m quite sure I looked a little crazy holding a vase of tulips outside the window on a chilly day as people drove past and slowed down. I was trying to get a nice black background to make this pop… I would have preferred a chocolate backdrop, but the car is black, so… This photo reminded me of one of John Matthew Moore‘s fabulous paintings – they are beyond stunning!

I know, I know… how many more photos can I take of these gorgeous historic buildings? You would be amazed! Look at the detail in this building located on Broad Street, Charleston, SC – it’s stunning! Long elegant windows – and look how the gorgeous color of the roof stands out against the brilliant blue sky. Wow!!!

This reminds me of the Rapunzel story… hee hee. Love how that wonderful light is hitting the cupola!
Charleston, SC architecture is the best!

This was taken downtown Charleston, SC on a relatively cloudy day. Some sun would have been stunning against the shutters, but it’s kind of neat the way it is! I love the crooked sign in this photo, I almost positioned the camera to not include it, but when I moved the camera to take the sign out of the way, it was less interesting.
Hey, you never know what works until you try it! Catch you back here tomorrow!
This was a fluke, but I thought it was a happy mistake for sure! Fred and I were on our way to Mount Pleasant, SC – the fog was thick and it was raining. The color of the break lights against the ominous sky was so magical I whipped out my iPhone and snapped a photo. How cool is this?
Have a great weekend! Catch you back here tomorrow!

It seems like fall brings fabulous, bright, magical skies and then once winter is upon us the lighting seems so much more magical. Lacking that strong intensity that summer brings it gives a soft golden glow, especially around dusk. I love the light and shadows on this building. This was taken on the coldest day we had so far this year… lows in the single digits and yet look how crisp and lovely this is!
Magic is Charleston in the winter!

Charlie… he knows how to spend his time wisely… I caught him in the sunroom taking a cat nap. You know that feeling when you’re in the sun, it’s so relaxing and your head gets heavy, eyes start to droop and then either your head does that bobble thing (like Charlie) or you just set it down and give in. Here he clearly gave in, ha ha…
Notice he doesn’t look too furry in this photo… this was after he had pancreatitis and was on a special very low fat food. It changed the way he looked entirely. He is now on a different very low fat food but one that allows his hair to look fluffy and wild. He loves that!
So do we Charlie! Have a great Sunday!
