Savannah welcomes...
with
filtered light through canopies of gnarled oaks,
garlands of Spanish Moss undulating with a sweet, slow dreaminess,
a faint breath of melancholy and barely-heard, haunted whispers.
Savannah seduces...
with
sinuous ironwork, candy colored azaleas
mist from verdigris fountains and a thousand, thousand tales
Savannah remembers...
her gracious days and sultry nights
her flirty Southern charm and style
uniquely hers, like nowhere else.
And wants you to remember, too.

ReplyDeleteHi G, Love the dreamy quality of some of the photos. So romantic. Have a fantastic weekend:) hugs, Jen
ReplyDeleteOh I want to go there!!! These shots are so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou captured the city so beautifully my friend!! t.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are gorgeous! There is so much past history from the south I will bet it seeps out of the walls and old trees. I always wonder about the stories and the people who inhabited the old places and walked under the same old trees I find myself under. There is a lot of small details in your photos that add to the collective charms of all your subjects. Its all in the detail!! Looking forward to more pictures!!
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous! Love all the railings, really a magical looking place. I've been working on my photographs and have taken some new ones for party invitations with your advice on colours, I'd love your opinion (some on my blog at the moment). Have a lovely weekend, Catherine x
ReplyDeleteOh, you make me want to go book a ticket to Savannah right this very minute, so I can take in all this beauty for myself. You should design the city's travel brochure--they couldn't have anything more lovely than this!
ReplyDeleteOh G! I think I will put this place on my "Hope to Visit and Click" List!! Lovely!
ReplyDeletePerfect pictures and perfect prose to go with them! You never disappoint! Thanks always for your sweet notes.
ReplyDeleteSavannah, such a wonderful place. Love the pastel colours. Beautifully photographed!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely and hopefully sunny weekend! xo
Hi Georgianna, those pictures are so beautiful. I love their "faded colour" quality...wow. Hope your weekend is good xo

ReplyDeleteI love the way you worded this post it complements your images so well. How fascinating to take a mini tour here and feel the Southern American spirit in all the photos. You really do capture the essence of all you photograph. I'm sure those who you take the images for must be more than happy with your results.
I admire how your style equates to not just florals but buildings too.
I enjoyed seeing the architecture and all the detail of planting and flowers. The fence with the heart in the post beneath is so cute!
Love and admiration
