The details count.

Of the many things I love about the historic district here in Fernandina Beach, I enjoy photographing the little (and sometimes big) details that make our city so enjoyable to stroll through. Here is a mixture of recent images I took with my Fujifilm X-T2 and two classic Nikon Nikkor film camera lenses.

The smallest details of the streetlights add a bit of charm and a feeling of nostalgia.
A beautiful chandelier in one of the shops.
New old knobs on a recently renovated door.
The cast-iron entryway to a popular fudge and ice cream shop.
Pirate Pete stands guard at Florida’s oldest saloon, the Palace.
The Palace Saloon. The building is c1878 and the saloon opened in 1903.
