True Blue

Blue Steps, Society Street, Charleston, SC  © Doug Hickok
(Click on image for larger view)


This could be a scene from the Mediterranean...
 Spain, Greece or Morocco...
but it is, in fact, Charleston.
The wear and tear of tropical heat & humidity
add texture and character to this true blue view.

    Nothing like a bit of wear and tear to add character. Well, that's what I hope is happening to me!

    How come I am experiencing some wear & tear and I don't reside in the tropics? Those steps are indeed very blue.

    Very interesting study of shapes and angles, all wrapped up in delightful variations of blue.

    Very fascinating and intriguing photo. Love it. My first impression on this image was the one taken in Greece!
    Have a wonderful Sunday, Doug.

    Exactly this was my thought when I saw the photo: a house in Greece! Firstly, I take a look at the photo, and only afterward I read the text. So, I am pleasantly surprised when I see my thinking meets that of the photographer's:)

    Yes, before I read your words, Doug, I immediately thought of photos I've seen of Morocco. Wonderful image!
