Mystery Photo Contest - April 2, 2020

The winner of the Mystery Photo Contest is Daniel Island resident Charles Maraziti, who correctly identified the picture as the Palmetto Tree design that is imprinted on flags located on street lights around Daniel Island.

Charles and his wife, Pat, purchased a house in Etiwan Park on Daniel Island in 2003 and rented it out until 2008, when he retired from banking. In 2009, they renovated the house and now use it as their second home. Their primary residence is in Boonton Township, New Jersey. 

Although he has participated in the mystery photo contest several times, this is his first time winning. “We found the current mystery photo on one of our long walks around the island,” Charles said. “Looking closely for clues helps us appreciate the true beauty of ‘our island in the sun.’”

He said, “What we love about Daniel Island is our wonderful neighborhood and the friends we have made over the years. It is so meaningful how neighbors, friends and all islanders come together to support each other in good times and times of stress, such as we are experiencing now.”

Congratulations to Charles, and thank you to all our readers for their keen observations.
