Charleston 145 Years After, 1865 - 2010

For my Photo Seminar class, I have given myself the project of conducting a photo survey of Charleston, SC 1865-Present day. Taking images originally taken in the 1860's during and right after the civil war. Most of the photographs have been attributed to Mathew Brady. Now I am going back and rephotographing the same location and matching up the two images.

Here is an example of what I am doing:


The end product will be a book of these images, along with a history. If this is successful, I hope to continue on with this project focusing on the Civil War era. We are only 5 years way from the 150th Anniversary.

Will continue to post the outcome. Crossing my fingers.

Hoping everyone has a wonderful 1st of October.

Artfully yours,

Andrea
