We’re back up in the Georgia Mountains which means we are back at Old Car City, this time armed with new gear, the infrared camera and a borrowed fish eye lens. And we have a model, Tune Up Ted. This posed scene has been staged often at OCC, usually with some nice young thing doing […]

Soft Sun
As I was working on this image setting it up as a Post Card, a I got a request to have a family member, an art & photography teacher, added to our Post Card list. Complimentary indeed. Perhaps it was a subliminal hint because I looked at this image more analytically and became rather fond […]
Horizon Job
If one is not a professional photographer on assignment, all it takes to have a successful shoot is one shot. Just one shot. And that’s what we send out a single shot and then we move on. Sometimes we do indeed get just one acceptable shot. Edisto Beach was kind to us. Gave us keepers. […]

The dawn was lovely but I was having trouble with the color using a new filter on my camera lens. The images were too blue. Time to retreat and try something else so on to software and textures. This felt like the scene I saw even if it wasn̵…

Drive an hour. Wait for the Wildlife Management Area gate down on Edisto Island to open. Go out to the bone yard. And then hope the for some clouds, just some clouds. We know we have low tide so we should get color sheen in reflections. We have waited all summer for the sun to […]
Cool Tool
We have a new tool or perhaps a new gadget or maybe a new toy . We converted an unused camera to a full infrared sensor. Now we can turn those green leaves white and other oddities with speed and control. Cool tool. And we are more than willing to put our feet where our […]
Discovery
We know, sorta know, some of Charleston’s streets so going back to check what’s going on has it’s rewards. Last year one property with a lovely iron gate had a For Sale sign on the gate. This year no sign but when we checked the gate was open and a parked car filled what would […]
The goofy 200 miles August 9-13, 2013
Before leaving Green Turtle
Bay, we had consulted with experienced River boaters—Captain Gordon at our end
and (Hoppies) Fern and Charles Hopkins at the one fuel stop 158 miles upstream.
Both agreed that the flood season had passed, and t…
