John Adams Hodge Visit

Our very own John Adams Hodge took us on an adventure at the September Guild Meeting. John is the pilot of a 1946 antique prop plane and literally slides the window open to take the images which make up his pictorial book South Carolina from the Air. He treated us to many of his spectacular photographs that he took from high up above South Carolina (and sometimes very low)! His book aims to include the diverse landscape that makes up South Carolina to include the quintessential light houses, coastline, urban areas, mountains, friendly people, and of course, Williams-Brice from the air. I would highly recommend giving this book a home in yours.

At the time of this posting, John’s book was #1 on Amazon’s Aviation Pictorial Books!

A summary of the book: a photographic documentary of the Palmetto State as seen from a 1946 antique airplane. It is a coffee table style book that depicts the geography and environment of the state and the connection between the land and its people. In addition to being a set of photographs that celebrate the diverse geography of South Carolina, the work also introduces the reader to diverse topics such as South Carolina's aviation history, airports, aircraft, and pilots. It also features sections on aerial geology, the environment, and aerial photography as art.
