This slightly off-kilter grain tower in the western part of Colleton County along S.C. Highway 641 reminded the photographer’s daughter of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Along the edge of the Southern Crescent, Colleton County is split by Interstate 95, which makes it poised for growth. Still, lots of the large county is rural. Walterboro is the seat of government in Colleton County, which is home to 38,153 people, 21 percent of whom live at or below the federal poverty level.
