Another view

Here is another view of the Tybee Lighthouse. I couldn't tell which one I liked better. In this one, I liked the contrast of the color of the clouds against the darker backdrop of the sky. It was also taken from the beach whereas the earlier photo was taken directly in front of it as I was driving by. Your thoughts?

Tybee Island Lighthouse

Tybee Island is the place to go around here for sun and fun. Some of the beach front properties are gorgeous. And so is the lighthouse.

The Globe

This is a landmark in Savannah although it goes largely unnoticed by those of us who live here. In fact, believe it or not, I was somewhat surprised that it was standing right where it was supposed to be the morning I took this shot because I drive by it all the time but very rarely see it!

In late summer 1999, Hurricane Floyd caused many to evacuate. After hurricane season was over that year, the Globe was repainted as you now see it, with a snarling-looking hurricane headed towards the southeastern coastline!

The Globe didn't always look like this. If you've ever seen the movie, Forces of Nature starring Sandra Bullock and Ben Affleck, there is a scene in which they are right in front of the Globe as it looked then. I tried finding a picture of it online but was unsuccessful.
