After taking a few sunset photographs of this beautiful catamaran out in Charleston Harbor, I thought I'd see what I could learn about it. It turns out it's available for hire! I might need to give them a call the next time we're in Charleston!

This photograph is a vertical panorama of five distinct photographs taken high above Wild Dunes, each at a different angle. Once they are all stitched together, the perspective changes dramatically as you look out towards the ocean.

One of the greatest things about the islands of the Caribbean is that beauty is all around you, even in rusty old ticket booths. Sure, this ferry "terminal" serves some of the highest-end real estate in the Islands, but why bother painting the rusty bars on the windows of the ticket booth when they're just going to rust again? The patina that is continuously covered up at most resorts is worn like a badge of honor in the Caribbean. And that's exactly how most people like it.

This proud goblin stands guard atop thousands of galleons in front of Gringott's Wizarding Bank in Diagon Alley. Is it just me, or does he sort of resemble somebody who is in the news all the time right now?

I'm not sure exactly what's going on here. The panda might be participating in the LEGO invasion or maybe he just finished washing his costume in the laundromat and is simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Something about that smirk, though, makes me think he's up to no good.
This massive LEGO creation was one of dozens at the Charlotte comic festival, HerosCon. The annual convention has been going on since 1982 and is named for Charlotte's iconic comic shop, "Heros Aren't Hard to Find."

I'm afraid I don't know much about Spartan Quality Feeds other than there are several vintage signs available for sale at auction online. This particular sign is not for sale and it hangs on an exterior wall of Fred's General Mercantile on Beech Mountain.

Have you ever eaten at the Restaurant Marrakesh in the Morocco World Showcase? I've always wanted to but on our last visit, we ate at Spice Road Table instead. It seemed that it might be a little more kid-friendly and we all really enjoyed it. If you have eaten there, how was it? I think we need to add it to our reservations list for our next visit.

I love the angles and lines you get from the shadows when you shoot straight down over a forest. I was surprised on this flight to see that there's an entire trail system hidden below the trees. They're probably game or hunting tracks but I like to think there's a moonshine still somewhere up in those hills and these are the trails the local entrepreneurs use to outwit Boss Hogg and Roscoe.

We had dinner at Taco Mamacita on Sullivan's Island the other night and on the drive back, we could tell the sunset was about to be really spectacular. As we hit the bridge over Breach Inlet, we got those awesome long-range views over the marshes and I could tell we were quickly running out of time. The second we got back, I put the drone up and managed to get a few shots just before the sun set. I was pretty convinced I had missed it as I was getting the drone prepared for the flight but figured I should give it a chance, anyway. I'm glad I did!

We spent a fun morning on the water in Charleston harbor a couple of weeks ago. The weather was really nice for the first half of the morning and then these ominous clouds started rolling in.
Pictured here is the Ravenel Bridge (the second iteration of the "New Bridge" over the Cooper River) and the decommissioned USS Yorktown.
