Annual Pumpkin Pickin in the Park

As usual we have a great time, with refreshments, socializing, jump castles and free pumpkins. The park is on Old Knight Parkway, behind the VA. See what a great time we had last year, below....

Changing With Technology, As Usual!

In our quest to learn better techniques for our marketing. We have invested thousands upon thousands of dollars into camera gear and programs to make your home look better. Now we don't alter the photos, i.e. adding grass, fixing bad spots. What we do is called bracketing. It's a complicated and technical process that takes pictures of your home at different exposures to make one great picture. You know like when the sky is really blue, but the shadows on the house make it look funny? So when you try to make the shadows go away but in turn the blue sky turns white. Well, this takes the best traits of three photos and blends them together as only the eye can see. I don't care how good the camera makers get, there is no way to recreate the eye. Take a look at our previous photo and the new one.

5 Points in Pictures

If your from Columbia or have lived here for longer than a month, you are aware of the area called 5 Points. 5 Points is a very neat and eclectic area of downtown Columbia. It is a mix of great night life, good food and great music. 5 points has a youth feel to it since it is with-in walking distance to USC. But is beautifully situated between Shandon, University Hill, USC and Wales Garden. 5 Points has a little bit of everything for everyone. Go out and enjoy and enjoy our pictures below.
