Well, here is another little surprising scene.  Looks and feels like a jungle to me, but this was actually in the middle of an office complex lobby.  I'd love to have this right outside my office!

It's surprising where I can find scenes like this...  while visiting a new local hospital/clinic.

Something springlike today.  Believe it or not, it is coming!!

It almost looks like the uninviting boundary to a castle.  In reality, its simply an ornate border around property downtown Charleston.  I am hoping the iron work is to deter seagulls from perching...

I was hoping to catch some pelicans this morning, but had to settle for this shot instead.  They are some kind of ibis or egret, not quite sure yet.

I spotted this glowing gem while strolling along one of the back streets.  It was simply glowing in the afternoon sun.  I adore greenhouses, and imagined this one to be a relaxing retreat of serenity and natural beauty tucked in the middle of downtown.  I could almost smell the sweetly humid tropical air inside.

Yet another good example of the great architecture of Charleston.

The downtown area of Charleston has many captivating buildings to investigate.  I get caught up in the careful details of attentive landscaping and exterior accents, and sometimes let my imagination dictate what I think I see.

The Ravenel Bridge spanning the Cooper River at sunrise.  I love how you can see the distinct warm glow of the sun on the bridge as it rises.

An iconic Charleston image, the palmetto tree silhouetted against the rising sun.

I'm fond of interesting marina buildings, even if they are new.  This one is the Charleston Harbor Fish House and Marina Store sitting at Patriots Point in Mount Pleasant overlooking the bay.

Buzzards!  Hanging out in town, waiting for some easy lunch.
