A Walk About Charleston

On the 1st, a friend and I walked downtown Charleston. I came away with some lovely shots and a new print! Thought I would share my walk with you...

This was above someone's garage. Love the architectural details that you can find here.

One of my favorite things about the downtown area are all the secret enclosed outdoor spaces.

Another garden viewed through the bars of a fence. The sounds of water complete with lush grass would certainly make this spot ideal for napping.

This one tree has wound it's way up and all over this fence.

This next house is on the famous "Rainbow Row", a street of very colorful row houses. I particularly liked this window box.

Ending our walk at the Battery. This house reminds me of a doll house, complete with a fairytale owl.
