Tybee Island Sunrise at Beach

Aug 6, 2011 | Sunrises & Sunsets

Here’s a sunrise HDR photo from Tybee Island, Savannah, Georgia, a bonus area that we stopped while driving back from North Carolina. We figured Savannah would be a good place to add some different scenery to the trip.

I’ve only visited Savannah, Georgia, once but that was late at night. This was the first time I was able to see what all the fuss was about in Savannah. It’s very old fashion, reminds me of Louisiana a little. But other than that it’s pretty much like Florida, in a way like St. Augustine.

When I was applying for Art School, Savannah College of Art and Design was one of the places I was looking to attend. It’s too bad I decided not to go to SCAD. I think I would have enjoyed it there. The culture there was much more conducive to art… something a young adult doesn’t think about when applying for college.
