I had meant to write this earlier since I put the photos online a week or two ago… but life has this way of getting busy without warning.
One of my favorite places in the world is Williamsburg, Va and I’ve posted photos from it off and on over the years. We made a trip there a few weeks ago to visit some friends who were traveling through the area. It was only a short weekend, but I managed a few shots that I like.
It also spurred me to make Williamsburg a real focus for the year and I plan to return as often as I can. I have a year-long pass, so my goal is go often and focus specifically on certain themes with every visit: people, architecture, macro/details, trades, seasonal aspects… whatever. Not that I won’t shoot some of whatever presents itself, but I think a series of specific thematic goals for each visit will make for an interesting project.
This time, I focused a bit harder on people in period costume (102 shots) than any other subject. That shows a bit in this visit’s set.
Nothing earth-shattering here, but it does add to my growing library of shots from colonial Virginia.
Enjoy!
Looks like a really nice trip into the past! You got some great shots as well!
Williamsburg is such a fun place to wander around and find shots! Lots of in-character people too!
