Mystery Woman

Coming St., Charleston, S.C.
I waiting for the steam to blow in the right direction when the woman stepped into the scene and improved the shot.

Check out VanessaK's photos of the Tall Ships in Savannah. Wow.

Noah Moore wrote a lovely entry about his mother for Mother's Day.

I love it when Cocktails in Charleston features a tilt shift photo in lieu of a cocktail.

Good night kids. Someone turn the lights out.

  1. Love your steam pic! What the heck is "tilt shift"? Looks like a photo of a toy car in a diorama... very cool effect! How do you DO that though?

    1. Isn't it a cool effect? It makes things look like a miniature world.

  2. The green -rimmed bike matches the foilage. The woman looks a wee bit chilly and the steam underscores the temperature...perhaps.

  3. Timing is everything! Great shot! I like the little cottage from your last post. I always wonder what people think when they see me taking a picture of their home. I think I might go out and ask why but would not be upset by it.

    1. I thought the cottage was empty because it didn't look like there was a power meter to it. The resident might be a squatter camping out. You can see his white shoes in the lower picture as he stood there looking at me. Oooops.
