Docked in Charleston for the weekend, being the subject of many photographs... I took my creative liberty on one shot of it, you'll have to come back tomorrow to see it!

A historically accurate reconstruction of a 170-foot 16th-century Spanish galleon El Galeon Andalucia which carries an all-Spanish crew that lives onboard the ship and travels from port to port by way of the open sea.

Shooting the sunrise on the water in Charleston Harbor, I found this bike resting on a lamp post in Waterfront Park. I'm really digging this image. It sighs leisure.

I adore the symmetry and meticulous landscaping at some of the homes.

#312

Brick streets, brick walks, brick walls, brick homes... I can't imagine how many times brick is repurposed in this historic city.

More of the beautiful iron work decorating buildings downtown.

The Old Slave Mart Museum.  Believed to be a privately owned slave auction house in operation during the  1830's to the 1850's.  

Nowadays, tourists visiting Charleston often mistake the City Market (at another location) as the place where slave auctions occurred; in reality, it was where slaves and farmers alike went to sell their goods.  

This is said to be an actual auction house. Many people do not realize that 35%-40% of slaves entering the US during these times entered through Charleston.

In a colorful downtown, a house appropriately named "The Pink House".

The lovely buildings are adorned with unique and beautiful iron work.

The Dock Street Theatre, built in 1809 in the French Quarter of Charleston- it was the first building in America built exclusively to be used for theatrical performances.The first opera performance in America took place at the Historic Dock Street Theatre.

The French Huguenot Church built in 1844.

My second favorite street. This one I see often depicted in wedding shots. Its just a cool building.

St. Phillips Church

#303

This is one of my very favorite walls downtown. When standing on this street, it really feels as if you've stepped back in time.
