Description
The inscription on the building says "United Community Services"
Monterey Square
Savannah, Georgia
Just last week
We had a fun week in Savannah! Of course I took hundreds of pictures, and I'm going through them looking for things I particularly like.
This shot is to show you a "typical" building in Savannah's extensive historic district. Savannah is known for having protected (in 1966) about 2-1/2 square miles of the original city, which gives it a unique flavor. It is the oldest city in Georgia, having been founded in 1733. The city remained intact during the Civil War. When General Sherman arrived in Savannah, the city surrendered immediately. Sherman famously wrote President Abraham Lincoln a letter presenting him the City of Savannah as a Christmas gift.
I'll be showing you a LOT more pictures of Savannah!

Beautiful building and capture - looking forward to more of your pictures
My first thoughts when I saw this were "This is beautiful. It looks just like the old South." Then I read your description and darned if I didn't nail it. So either I'm that good (doubtful) or Savannah is that unique which means it goes on my bucket list. But seriously, this is a beautiful image.
I love the magical feel of this beautiful place you achieved with this filter. Super work and lovely to hear that you enjoyed your trip. 😀
Woah! This has such a magical feel, Tara! A beautiful photo with your magic touch! Looking forward to more!
Gorgeous! The digifiddle is perfect for this dreamy place.
Oh, Spanish Moss hanging from trees, nothing more beautiful.
A perfect exemple of a south classical house.
Tara, I have a lot to catch up on in your gallery, and I'll do it over a few sessions. But let me start with your Savannah shots, and I'll move up and back after that...you used this filter glitteringly, producing a symphony of lights as well as an actual photograph of a beautiful structure. You caught the highlights already embedded in your photo, and made them shimmer as if they were part-liquid. It's an eye-popping photo.
The UCServices bldg looks Georgian (in Georgia!), with those typically classical proportions so beautifully balanced across the facade. With the beautiful inset white-trimmed windows, which give such beautiful grace to the facade. The classical columns in the entry way, the beautiful red brickwork, etc. It's what I'd expect to see in a city like Savannah. And you let it come through loud and clear, even though it's obscured by those beautiful lush trees. And lots of sky above---which I assume you've whited out to give more luminescence to the shot. Fascinating history you gave; and I imagine this city is esp lush in the springtime. A very lush shot of a classical, beautiful structure. Great way to start out your presentation of this place.
