Ganby Park, South Carolina

I've decided to do some blogging about my shoots and travels, and I suppose Ganby Park is a good place to start. Ganby Park is located on the Congaree River near downtown Columbia, South Carolina. After seeing the beautifully kept Riverfront Park, just down the road, I expected to get some nice golden hours shots there.

I hate to start blogging on a bad note, but Ganby Park was a bit disappointing. The sidewalk appeared as though they had not been leaf blown in a week and there was trash along the trail that appeared to have been there a few days. There were few places to get a good enough view of the river to take nice photos. Every bench or overlook had an outstanding view of foliage... The attached photo is a great example. I chose not to add it to my gallery due to the bushes blocking the bridge. There were no other vantage points to shoot from.

So my plan is to give it another go if we are still in the area when the trees start going bare, hopefully the views will be better then. We are relocating to Savannah, Georgia the last week of October. Being this far south, I may not get the opportunity to try again.
