March 2015. As I write this post we’re in the midst of receiving five to eight inches of snow courtesy of Winter Storm “who knows what it’s named.” Hard to believe that in a matter of weeks there will be colorful azalea in Charleston, South Carolina; pink Cherry Blossoms at the National Mall in Washington D.C.; and Virginia Bluebells up and down the waterways in Piedmont, Virginia. Yet, that is what my schedule says I need to be preparing for (as I bundle up and grab the shovel again). Crazy! But, then again, this is the transitional period where the seasons play musical chairs and right now winter’s status quo is holding on tight.

 

This photograph was taken two years ago on March 20th at Folly Beach near Charleston, South Carolina. I posted a version several years ago that was a tighter composition during the “red” colors of sunset. This one was just as the sky began to explode; a wider composition of rich oranges. The Edwin S. Taylor Folly Beach Fishing Pier was built in 1995 and is owned and managed by Charleston County Parks and Recreation. It stretches over one-thousand feet out into the Atlantic Ocean, spanning twenty-five feet in width and standing twenty-three feet off the ground.
