Traditional b&w. I forget exactly what this building is, but I stood on the steps and tilted my head back to take the shot, while Mom held onto me to keep the strong wind from blowing me over. Really captures how aware of my shortness I am when looking up at these things! — February 2001

Traditional camera, digital processing. These men were sitting down on the sidewalk, one of them making flowers out of palm fronds. It seems to be a popular way to make a few bucks off the tourists. The film this was taken on had to be sent in to the company for processing, and I received prints as well as digital copies on CD of the images. — February 2001

Traditional camera, digital processing. Mom and I were walking around, and I noticed this gorgeous house... I love wrought iron! Of course, I had to take a picture of it, and I liked it enough to use it as the main image of these galleries. Unfortunately, the sky came out very bright, and a lot of detail was lost. I'd love to figure out where that house was again, so I can take a better quality shot of it. — February 2001.

Traditional camera, digital processing. This very friendly spits was walking around on the sidewalk without a leash; its owners stayed with it. Part of the reason I took a picture of the dog was that when I was growing up, we had a shelty/spits mix named Gimli (another girl pet with a male name!)

Digital camera. The law offices of Sonny Seiler, and I don't know if I'm spelling that name right so my mom will have to correct me if I'm wrong. Nice Ionic columns and wrought iron fencing. — Spring 2001?



All of the below from July 2001, taken with a digital camera

Peering over a fence gate into the back patio of someone's house.

A lovely house on Bull Street... I'm a nut for wrought iron!

The Pulaski Monument, which is not in Pulaski Square. Savannah's pretty strange about monuments not being in the squares of the same name.

The trees in a few different squares.

Bonaventure Cemetary, which is featured in The Book, has gorgeous trees and sculptures. I'm normally not interested in visiting cemetaries, but that one is just so beautiful!

Forsyth Park is really big by my standards. I don't know what kind of trees they are, but they have pretty pink blossoms!

The first two were taken inside the Hyatt, and the last two from the roof patio that's up around the fifth floor or so (can't recall exactly.)

The Kehoe House, a bed and breakfast on the east side of the historic district, was once a funeral parlor. Doesn't that make you want to stay there? It sure LOOKS pretty though...

Factor's Walk runs between the old cotton buildings, sort of between the street and riverstreet levels.

Ahhh, the Savannah River, and the big bridge leading over to what's-it-called island and South Carolina.

Riverstreet runs (you guessed it!) along the Savannah River, lined with the old cotton warehouses-turned-businesses. There's some great restaurants (and candy stores!)

The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist was recently renovated. It was kinda built on a bad foundation... it's GORGEOUS inside, too!
