Not too far outside of Beaufort, SC are the ruins of the Old Sheldon Church. It was built around 1750 and burned by the British forces during the Revolutionary War in 1779. The church was rebuilt in 1826 only to be burned again in 1865 by Sherman’s men in their march to the sea. Finally taking the hint, it was not rebuilt.
As we were leaving another group was showing up to look around and I took this throw away shot with them in it. I now wished I waited for them to leave to frame, as I think I may like this angle better. Although they add something because it appears like they all looking up at the building…
You could always PShop them out. Some people have a problem with that, but as long as you admit it, it’s okay by me.
