Artist's Description
When South Carolina became the first state to secede from the Union in December of 1860, it took control of all the lights on its coastline and towed the Rattlesnake Shoal Lightship into Charleston Harbor. The lens was removed from Morris Island Lighthouse, and the tower was converted into an observation post. Just a few months later, in April of 1861, shots were fired at Fort Sumter, located just north of the lighthouse at the entrance to the harbor, and the war was underway. The Confederates were able to hold onto Charleston for most of the war, but during the course of the conflict, much of the city was burned or blown up, and Morris Island Lighthouse was destroyed. According to a newspaper account, the lighthouse was "blown up by order of the rebel military authorities" on December 25, 1861. (lighthousefriends.com)
About Dawna Moore Photography
Coastal & Travel Photography | Prints & Wall Art I believe travel broadens the mind and feeds the soul. I love to photograph the grand scenics of the beaches and marshes at sunrise and sunset and the historic, cultural, and architectural details of the towns and cities along the seacoast. Living in the small town beach community of Amelia Island on the East Coast of Florida, I'm inspired by the sound of the waves crashing, smelling the salty sea air and the pure joy of being able to dig my toes in the sand while searching for sharks teeth along the water's edge.
