From a recent visit to Middleton Place Plantation near Charleston, SC. I ran these grounds as a child and held odd jobs in the stable yards throughout high school. The natural light was primo and I couldn't pass it up. Hope you enjoy.

And here's The Cooper (Blacksmith and Barrel Maker). He's strafing reeds to wrap around wooden casks. I told him that my children thought he was a bit "Harry Potter"-ish and he confessed to being a Hufflepuff. :D
