I have always assumed photographing dawn was all about the colors.

Found On A Walk, Cemetery
I have passed by here many times, however the gate has always been locked.
This day it was open. I wasted no time wandering around.

When we moved to the Lowcountry the grand plan was to shoot wildlife all the time. For a while that’s just what we did too.
As we explored we also found places we never considered, or even conceived of. Meeting camps like this are a perfect example.
From both a photographic and historical perspective Indian Fields is a treasure.

Views Of Old Church Camp Cabins
The camps are built in a circle facing a Tabernacle in the center. The back side of the grounds have dirt roads running around the cabins, and out to a paved town road. All the camps are built the same way.
A great way to get interesting, and random, images is to walk the dirt road. Below are a few photographs ‘found on a walk’.
St. George, South Carolina.
Sit A Spell, Monochrome
Cabins in a meeting camp outside St. George, South Carolina.
Out front many permanent benches and tables had been added over the years. The cabins front doors all face the Tabernacle.
Many of the ‘tents’ have been in the same family for 100+ years.

Church Lighting, Charleston
Once you get inside these old churches it can be over whelming. What do you shoot first? Normal response is go wide and get it all.
I need to get better at getting the small details.
