Image by Joseph Nienstedt C-17's sit at the North Charleston Air Force Base.

Charleston photographer Joseph Nienstedt recently went for a ride in a Cirrus SR22 airplane out of the Mount Pleasant Regional Airport and has come back with a nice collection of photos from around the region.

From the Charleston Airport, airbase, to Folly Beach and more, the set's a fun look at the lowcountry; check out his shots over here.

Or get them in a nice slide show.
