Barefoot Landing



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)

Barefoot Landing is a shopping and entertainment development in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. This picture, originally a slide, was taken in January, 1998. The slide was damaged, but I discovered I could obscure the damage with a soft focus and still keep the reflection that I liked so much.

The picture above was scanned from a slide.

We found many old memories from the old photographs that were kept by my dad.

Most of them are in black and white.

Yours is beautiful and sweet as well.

Good Morning George

Great photo! You reminded me that I have some old slides stored in my garage somewhere? Most of them are probably over 40 years old. I think I'll try to find them and see if they are still good.

Have a great day, Ron

The reflection is very nice. I can see why you wanted to hide the damage.

How lovely with the willow reflection! We had a complex that looked just like that here. But all the walking was outside (not good for bad weather) and no one could find where anything was. You must be a master photo editor, this is truly lovely, I clicked and looked for the damage, and still couldn't find it!

The reflection sure is nice. It even has a willow tree.:)

This is a pretty scene. Do you ever still look through those slides? I have a binder with some in storage, but I haven't seen them in almost twenty years.

We've been to North Myrtle Beach and have enjoyed it each time. Our youngest was married in Holden Beach -- just on the other side of the state line.
Remarkable that you have to expertise to save that photo!

This photo is as though you have taken it in Auckland today. A lot of our trees are yellow.

Great reflection.

What a nice photo, I liked how you turned "damage" into such a soft image. I would love to find my mother's slides and scan them!

Excellent that photo frame with warm rich colors reflected in water, a great catch.
