Kiawah Island, SC

Originally opened in 1921, the 500-seat Seminole three-story building on Krome Avenue was built for Henry Booker, Sr. and James Washington English for movies and live entertainment. The theater was heavily damaged in a 1940 fire, leaving little more than a blackened shell.

 

Prolific theater architect Roy A. Benjamin was hired to rebuild the Seminole, which he designed in Streamline Moderne style. The cost of the movie theater's reconstruction was around $50,000. It reopened in the fall of 1940. In addition to movies, the Seminole continued to host live entertainment, as well as beauty contests and cooking demonstrations. In the early 1970s, the Seminole has renamed the Premier Theatre and began to show Spanish-language movies. It closed in 1979 due to declining attendance.

 

For years, the theater sat vacantly and fell into disrepair. In 1992, when Hurricane Andrew hit the Homestead area, the Seminole was not spared, and though its walls stood, the roof was torn off and the theater's interior suffered serious damage. In 1993, the Seminole Theater's owners donated the battered theater to the city, which designed it a local historic site two years later. The building is one of the few remaining examples of Art Moderne/Art Deco style theatres in all of Miami-Dade County.

 

The Seminole Theater Group was organized in 1997 with the intention of restoring the theater as a performing arts venue serving the Homestead and Dade County region. It is expected to cost about $4.2 million to bring the old Seminole back to life. The Seminole Theatre was reopened on October 28, 2015.

 

William B Medellin Architect P.A. as the historic preservation consultant for the project was responsible for the restoration of the historic facades, including the re-painting of the exterior walls to match the original historic colors; re-installation of missing historic elements such as the historic “Starburst” fretwork over the transom entrance doors and the historic travertine wainscot using historic salvaged travertine found at the Theater’s storage room. The interior lobby stairs and railings were the only original historic interior elements remaining in the building.

A shell found at Long Reef (Sydney)

This is a close-up photo of the concave side of an open clam shell that I placed on a coastal rock. The two halves remind me of the pareidolia faces of two crooners singing with their eyes closed.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - The terrain on the west side of the Bighorns is much different than the east side because the climate is dryer. I spent the morning finding out where this dirt road near Shell goes.

Taken on a trip to Wales in July 2012.

 

Whilst allowing Mrs RJP to take in some rays on Oxwich Beach, I cracked out the 105mm Macro lens and had a play.

a collection of some beautiful necklaces made of different shapes and colors of shells, so delightful to see, and of course tempting to buy, I bought a blue bracelet :))

 

A special dedicate to my dear friend Patricia, she makes so wonderful and talented collection of jewelries!!... thought you would like this :)

 

Have a beautiful weekend! :)

Picked up these tiny shells on the beach last week. Cropped.

playing with light and shadows.

Found these (clean!) oyster shells while cleaning out the boxroom.

A very unexpected sight as we stood at the end of Shellness beach looking out at the birds on the mudflats - we turned and saw this dramatic painting of a male marsh harrier - on an old WW2 concrete blockhouse.
