Title: Old Sheldon Church in Beaufort, SC
Post by: shutterbug99 on February 09, 2010, 11:50:16 AM
This is one of my favorite locations to photograph.  It's pretty heavily visited for obvious reasons and is extremely popular for outdoor weddings.

It does look as though those pillars and arches would be a beautiful setting for a wedding.  :thumbsup:

I'd Be honored!

Here's one that's angling toward the back of the church.

Here's one that focus more on the tombstones that surround the church.  There's something about this shot that really appeals to me. I think my wife thinks I'm crazy for photographing a tombstone.  :idiot:  But I think it works.

I'd like to thank you all for you kind words.  It really means a lot to me.  <3

Beautiful shots, shutterbug99! You could probably walk around all day and take so many different shots--and then come back on another day and get a totally different perspective. I love places like this, and you captured it so well.

No doubt about that!  This place just had an endless supply of possibilities.  I love when the fog rolls in personally.  :thumbsup:

I love walking through graveyards.  This is something my dad and I used to do after church when I was young.  The headstones are fascinating, can you imagine the stories behind them?

I like this shot.  Well done it works!
