    A magical picture and I adore the yellow ochre render playing off the cobalt blue balcony, brilliant. Actually, I wasnt completely sure of Charleston's position so Ive just googled it and chuckled to learn the town is famed for its 'mannerly people' which fits as I can imagine the inhabitants of these lovely houses being very 'mannerly'!

    I can see that you are attracted to wrought irons. Those lanterns and the wrought irons seem to go hand in hand. There seem to be that travelling back in time feel to this image. Lovely take.

    It's nice to look colors, because we have only white, so much snow :)
