Folly Beach is a popular beach near Charleston, South Carolina. On the far north end of the island is a state park where you can see the remains of the old Morris Island. The island has been washed away, but the light that was constructed in 1876 still remains. For this photograph, I was able to catch the sun for only a few minutes as it finally appeared between two cloud layers. I liked the way these old trees on the beach seemed to be pointing directly at the rising sun. This photo was taken within a few minutes of "Morris Island Sunrise".

The island has been washed away, but the light that was constructed in 1876 still remains. For this photograph, I wanted to find a unique view with some interesting leading lines. This image won the 2014 Charleston Magazine Images of Charleston photo contest, amateur category. It was also featured on the cover of the August 2014 issue. I used a neutral density filter on my lens to render the waves as a foggy mist on this one minute long exposure.
This is the entry road to the old Botany Bay plantation on Edisto Island in South Carolina. A majestic old road that hints at the old way of life in the lowcountry.
