Aging Stones

Sheldon Church Ruins, near Yemassee, South Carolina

Aging sarcophagi are part of the old Sheldon Church graveyard.
 The church dates back to South Carolina's colonial period, 
and has survived more than two centuries of strife and decay. 
What remains of a brick pulpit can still be seen inside the church walls.

    I love this, it reminds me of ruins that we have in the UK. I want to step into the screen and visit there.

    A fine shot of these ruins. The remains are very interesting and look great in this toning.
