PhotoRaconteur > "Waterfront Fountain" ~ A focal point of family activity in the beautifully appointed Waterfront Park in downtown Charleston, South Carolina, this fountain is usually filled with kids splashing about in swimsuits, while their parents retreat from the sun under nearby shade trees. I arrived early one chilly February morning in order to capture this photo, sans children. The arching streams of water frame the park's pier as well as Patriot's Point on the opposite shore of Charleston Harbor.

PhotoRaconteur > "Shadows & Stairs No. 2" ~ Shadows created by iron balusters at the Old Exchange Building in historic Charleston, SC. Shot on Kodak T-MAX B&W film.

PhotoRaconteur > "Shadow Swirls at the Old Exchange" ~ Historic downtown Charleston in South Carolina has one of the highest concentrations of finely crafted iron fences and gates in the world. Some of my favorite wrought ironwork in Charleston is the balusters and railing at the Old Exchange Building (c. 1771). The location on East Bay Street at the end of the east-west corridor of Broad Street sets up this ironwork for some remarkable shadows such as these. Cast against the texture of masonry flooring at the entrance to the Old Exchange, these shadows make for one of my personal favorite compositions featuring ironwork. Also see "Shadows & Stairs" for another great composition of shadows and iron at the same building.

Some of my favorite wrought ironwork in Charleston is the balusters and railing at the Old Exchange Building (c. 1771). The location on East Bay Street at the end of the east-west corridor of Broad Street sets up this ironwork for some remarkable shadows such as these. Cast against the shape and texture of stairs in this photo, the shape of the shadows varies as the suns position changes with the seasons. On this particular day, the shadows aligned perfectly with the stair treads to make for one of the most interesting compositions of its type in my portfolio. Also see "Shadow Swirls" for another great composition of shadows and iron at the Old Exchange.

PhotoRaconteur > "St. Philips Shadows" ~ B&W composition of shadows on the steps of St. Philips Episcopal Church created by the setting sun and a wrought iron gate at the church in historic Charleston, South Carolina. Established in 1680, St. Philip's is the oldest Anglican congregation south of Virginia.

PhotoRaconteur > "Market Hall, Charleston, SC" ~ Historic downtown Charleston in South Carolina has one of the highest concentrations of finely crafted iron fences and gates in the world. While most of the ironwork is of the wrought iron variety, there is also some amazing cast iron installed around the city. It was a great pleasure to live in Charleston while the old Market Hall (c. 1841) was being renovated, including the beautiful ornate cast iron balusters and railing on its façade. It was so cool to see the old cast iron come back to life up the double winding staircase entrance to the building, and it was even cooler to capture a fun composition.
