Photos on Folly

Taking photos of Folly is as natural as turning your face towards the sun. Now that I can experiment with this great digital camera, my eye is becoming more refined.

Capturing a moment of the day, when the sky is just the right shade of blue and the shadows dance across the water is so satisfying. But I have also learned that the lens can hardly do justice to the real thing.

Sunset on Folly


This is the view from a private island off the inner coastal waterways. We were shuttled here by boat and had a great weekend of camping, hiking, cooking, sunbathing and camp fires. The sunset over the water at about 7:45pm and the stars quickly followed. The quiet night air offered a glimpse into a simpler life among the century oak trees, swaying palmetto frawns and the smell of the sea. It was truly a vacation in paradise.
