One of my favorite cities. All the trees covered in moss, especially the live oak trees. The squares, just two blocks apart throughout much of the city. The architecture, all the different houses and other buildings constructed with style and a restriction on height keeping all the details within sight.
The Davenport house

This is her in 2013. Someone has since broken the light at her feet. I put a flash set to a low power behind the light to light it up.
This is a beautiful city to shoot at night so that is when I enjoy making pictures.
