Description
Charleston SC Sunset Folly Beach Trees - The Calm
We were lucky enough to witness this amazing sunset at Folly Beach SC on our most recent trip to the coastal areas near Charleston, South Carolina. This amazing sunset beach scene had all of the elements a landscape photographer could hope for with a great subject, incredible lighting, leading lines in the sky and water to draw you deeper into the scene, and it's all topped off by a richly colored sunset sky. I especially like the way a beam of golden evening light perfectly highlights the fine detail of the tree trunks.
I shot this image on the eve of Hurricane Irene as she approached Charleston, and you can see the leading edge of the storm on the horizon. I returned to this location the next morning as the storm hit and it was anything but the peaceful and serene environment pictured here. Hope you enjoy it, comments welcome! ;-)

Special art work!...a thin line separates photography from painting. In this superb work my eyes are "walking" on that line...

In LOVE with this, Dave - wow ! I like the way the light highlights the detail of the tree trunks too - the gorgeous sunset and isn't it wonderful you were able to experience this peaceful "calm before the storm" and then the aftermath. Must have been amazing. Really beautiful. Faved ;)
