Morning Walk at Folly Beach

The seagulls also are enjoying the warming sun



Family walk and so many questions for Dad



He is waiting for the next wave



The waves are rolling in to the shores



The pier at Folly Beach

This six-mile-long by half-mile-wide stretch of sandy beach sports condos, a fishing pier, and loads of history.

In the 1930s, the giant pier and pavilion (later destroyed by fire) rose to fame for billing such big-name acts as Tommy Dorsey, Artie Shaw, the Ink Spots, and Guy Lombardo. Gershwin fans may be interested to know that George and Ira composed "Porgy and Bess" while staying on the beach. Although fire wiped out most of the beach's historical structures, the area is still a popular draw for surfers, picnickers, anglers, and sunbathers, and it offers a pleasant retreat from harried site-seeing for the brain-tired traveler.

The sound of Silence


Between the momentary crack when the day turns to night if you listen carefully you can hear the sizzle of the sun going into the sea....sssss.....

Just another Sunset in Paradise


It's just another simple and wonderful sunset - seen at Mallory Square, where I'm selling my photography to tourists from all over the world. They come every evening down to the pier to see and to celebrate this spectacular sensation. This is the only place I know of where you can combine your work with a lot of fun.
