You know, that reminds me a lot of Charleston's City Hall, except with a parking lot.

Already posted #456, Firefox! Anyway, I like the palmetto silhouetted against the blue sky, and the fountain. Your City Hall looks very quiet, a good place to have a nap!

[Firefox]

that better?

that better?

Much better; I like the view of the State House with Cornell Arms peaking over its shoulder.

The only parking lot at the State House is underground.

Firefox changed the photo because he had already posted. I'm sure Spartan's comment went with that picture instead.

I hope I don't sound like nagging. :/

I'll keep up with the theme of the SC State House......this complex is truely beautiful to me!

Great shots! I like the last one the best. I'm always drawn to the State House whenever I am anywhere close.

I was talking about City Hall, not the State House.

I'm a railroad enthusiast and while most folks try to avoid them, heck, I chase them! This shot was taken from the new portion of the Cayce Riverwalk. I'm close to the river and if things weren't so dry here lately, I'd probably be in the river even a year ago.

The train nearer to us is coming into from Columbia from Hamlet, NC about to pull into the yard in Cayce. The train on the other trestle is Norfolk Southern train waiting on the CSX train to pass. It'll them head to their yard in Columbia having come up from Augusta, Georgia.

Hope you wnjoy!

Joe, that is a gorgeous photo. I love the reflection in the river and the sky color.

[Captain Worley]

Wow! Righclick save on that one. I love locomotives and with the reflection...

[johnpro318]

It looks almost like a picture for a puzzle.

Great Job Joe!

[Spartan]

Excellent picture

Firefox changed the picture.

Ah. I did not notice that. Yeah the State House doesn't remind me at all of Charleston's City Hall

[johnpro318]

I miss living in Columbia. I plan on taking a lot of pictures over the break.

[waccamatt]

Where do you live now, Johnpro?

[johnpro318]

Where do you live now, Johnpro?

I'm attending Clemson University. I can't wait to head back home later today!

Great shots, guys.

[waccamatt]

I have got to get out this weekend and take some pictures. Canalside is starting to shape up and they are hard at work on site prep for the new brownstones on Pulaski Street. I also noticed people were starting to move into the first section of the Battery on Arsenal Hill.

[CarolinaSouth]

Excellent pictures guys.... Joe I love the railroad pic...the way both trains crossed and the reflection it made on the water is beautiful....I had to save that one too....lol.

John....i like your pic too....I was trying to take a night picture of that fountain a few weeks ago when i was in town and I was bombarded by a couple of panhandlers so i just hurried up and left....

Brasil......I love the pic....i remember the first time i noticed that statue...I was riding with a couple of friends just cruising thru the city after a party we went to and i'll admit to having a few drinks.....I'll also admit to that statue scaring the mess out of me too.....lol...I saw it out of the corner of my eye and thought it was someone coming towards the car...lol. I had never noticed it there before that night...it took a minute for me to calm down and my friends laughed at me for a couple of days afterwards...lol...mainly because i usually don't jump for any reason, but i did that time!

I'm with you to 'matt.....I'm coming up to SC to attend various graduations of family members and i will be bringing my camera to get new pictures...

[johnpro318]

Wow brasil, that picture is amazing! I really like that statue.
