All's Fair in Love and Rockets

Nothing could be finer art than South Carolina art! The Palmetto State is full of eye-catching nature, landscapes, structures, and people, so much so that it can also resonate beyond our borders. Let these images catch your heart as well, and Remember the Days!

Coker Salt Flats. A full-color photo captures an eerie purple glow coming from the otherwise linear black-and-white Coker Life Sciences building. What exactly are they experimenting with?
Maybe it’s a #USCrevival ? See the science of USC’s campus art at AmbrotypeVisuals.com/usc

Presidential Colors. It's Flag Friday at the USC President's House with SC, USA, and USC! DYK the current President's House was not the first one? This one was built in 1810, totally reconstructed in 1854, and only assumed its new function in the 1950s. I'm not sure when the flags were added or became the fixture they are today. There are some great stories about the building and its people in USC's Remembering the Days podcast, episode 26 (no affiliation w/ me and the podcast). This and more banner art, part of a #USCrevival : AmbrotypeVisuals.com/usc

Paths to Pillars. South Caroliniana Library dominates the Horseshoe, and though it may seem like a long walk across, it’s very worthwhile. Designed by Robert Mills in 1840, it just reopened this summer with some of the most historic collections in the world. This image is part of #USCrevival at AmbrotypeVisuals dot com / usc !

Yellow Brick Row. USC’s Horseshoe comes complete with classic paint colors and rolling brick hills. Just off the Horseshoe gates sits 1848-built Legare-Pinckney College, which is actually a residence hall, right in the middle of it all.

Chaos Interruptus. This paper, that package, men shouting, bumpy trackage; Abruptly stopped when its fate did meet, the automobile... now it's obsolete; But the spirits do last, and nostalgia remains, looking just as it did the last day of this train.
Help the @scrailroadmuseum - I’ll donate 10% of all sales from my SCRM gallery to them.
This car was SOU 27, taken 10/29/22.

Bonnie Prince. ‘Fakebonnets’ aren’t the true kings of ex-ATSF, but they have a following. Now available at AmbrotypeVisuals.com, this one was appropriately second-in-line, with a tiny (and new) BNSF patch, as it street ran near campus with excellent color pop. Bonus points if you get the references. 6/19/23.

UP Over Land. Happy Birthday, @uprr ! Chartered #otd 7/1/1862 along with the Central Pacific to create the first transcon. To celebrate, here’s a classic flag scheme moving over I-77; it’s not quite the Overland Route, but this was actually NS P85 routing itself over Landstar. So, close enough. 8/2/22.
