South Carolina Random Shots
Photographers love taking photos specific to their passion and style. You know me, it’s birds and wildlife. But like others, I do try to take different photos to expand my horizons and work on my skills.
Here are a few shots that I took in past few months from our balcony in South Carolina that I liked and thought I’d share….
Yes, that is snow on the beach! (January 4, 2018)
Double Rainbows!
Throwing in this one taken from the boardwalk.
Oh heck, to add in a bird shot, here’s some Double-breasted Cormorants enjoying the fishing pier that was closed to the public due to damage.
Just fooling around with this last one…..I liked the lines and colors.
Thank you for taking your time to view these. I’ll be back very soon with a new post on Bella & Beau!
It must be wonderful to have such views from your balcony, they were wonderful! You must be near Charleston, if so, my brother may have been responsible for loading and/or unloading the military cargo planes in your photos.
Thanks Jerry, we were close to Charleston, stayed in Garden City, SC. Most times the navy planes were at a real distance, this cargo plane made a nice turn inland. 🙂
You have the right idea Donna. Taking photos of a variety of subjects is both challenging and rewarding.
It is, thanks Hien!
Excellent shots Donna! 🙂
Thanks HJ! 🙂
Lovely views from your balcony, Donna. Stunning rainbow shot. 👏🏻
Thanks Sylvia, I wish they had gotten more distinct and bigger, but still they were so pretty!
Nice variety of photos. Snow on the beach? That’s not something I’m used to seeing.
Thanks Ingrid! No snow for you, unless on the mountaintops in the distance. 🙂
You got me pegged 😁
Nice shots of the mechanical birds! You had a great vantage point for all sorts of interesting things to photograph.
Thanks Ellen, view points can be really interesting. 🙂
I like those image of the sea and waves. The birds have the right idea just basking in the sea air and sun. 🙂
Thanks Deborah, they surely got the right idea! 🙂
Great collection of images! My favourite is The Fisherman and love the crazy Cormorant characters!
Thanks Mike! The temps were in the high 50’s, but I guess that fisherman was determined to fish! 🙂
Stunning. Love the Cormorant line up!
Thanks Nexi! I think the Cormorants felt privileged to have the pier all to themselves! 🙂
Different Donna, like the palm tree shot.
Thanks Brian, sometimes we gotta be different! 😉
Wow Donna, how amazing to see snow on a beach, it seems impossible, but there it is! South Carolina looks like a place I would love to visit It looks some ways similar to some of our beaches.
Thanks Ashley, our intent was to escape the mid-Atlantic winter and bask in the sunny 60-70’s that is the usual for the South Carolina coastline. I think winter followed us! 😉
I love the fisher person and seeing all those cormorants, also the abstract warf and water. Keep enjoying!
Thank you Jane, always fun to get out of my comfort zone! 🙂
I like when photographers break out of their usual routine and show us something different. Thank you.
You’re welcome and thank you, Tom!
Always a good thing to shake things up a bit. I was thinking that you had some odd looking birds in some of those shots and that was before I got to the cormorants.
Do planes count as mechanical birds?? 😉 Those Cormorants really thought they had it made, getting the fishing pier all to themselves. Lucky them!
Wonderful photos, especially enjoyed the fisherman, double rainbows and the fishing pier shots!🙂
Thank you very much! 🙂
