No Grit, Ok?

Yeah, I know. What kind of city shot isn't in black and white? Taken at night? With streaking traffic lights? With more noise than a Harley cranking up the rpm's as it tears down an early morning street?

After all, everyone knows that city's are crammed full of danger, clubs, and dope addled junkies ready to beat a child senseless for a dime bag. Or they're trash dappled sidewalks that are crumbling from neglect. Or... or grafitti scarred buildings boarded up tight to keep the rats and cockroaches in. Or... or...

Well no way they could be like this, right? Nah... Too comfortable, inviting, and elegant. Okay, okay... so I'm a hopeless romantic, huh?

I've decided that I'm not even going to comment... because you know what I think of it before I even tell you...

I have family that live in Beaufort, and I recognized it as soon as I saw the first half of the photo. Beautiful area isnt it?

Could this be subtitled "Time Was"?

I have been about long enough not to dream of knowing what a woman thinks before she tells me. Or at least not to admit it....

Astonishingly!

And yet it is now. As I've written eleswhere... "Evocative Southern images have an air of being made from pictures of the past. The continuity between then and now gets firmer the farther you meander below the Mason-Dixon Line. "

Too frequently a picture of now comes without a calendar. I wonder if Dixie isn't a place with a deeper respect for legacy?

I like it, I'd like to see just bit more of the house but not mandatory.
