No trip to Charleston is complete without a visit to Folly Beach for sunrise. It has a photogenic wooden pier that adds interest to sunrise and if it is a dud sunrise like this one you can go under the pier and take photos of the waves around the pilings. I was about to leave, but decided to try my infrared camera, which really brought out the variety of clouds.
I like the patterns made by the struts in the pier along with the abstract reflection in the wet sand.
