Painted Southern Sunset I took this photo on a random day visiting Hilton Head Island in South Carolina.  Despite most of the South, it was interesting to me to see how life flourishes differently in the Fall and Winter Months.  The trees are Loblolly Pine, and I feel the title is fitting because the sun and lighting gave the effect of the photo being painted.

  1. Welcome to JungleDragon, Gindy! I see you already found your way around species identification. Compliments for describing the tree species, it is one of the most underrepresented categories of life on the site. Posted 10 years ago
