PER CURIAM
Walter Calvin Priester, II, appeals his indecent exposure conviction, arguing the trial court erred in qualifying the State's expert witness. We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities: State v. Lopez, 352 S.C. 373, 378, 574 S.E.2d 210, 213 (Ct. App. 2002) (finding an issue must be raised to and ruled upon by the trial court in order to be considered on appeal); State v. Bailey, 298 S.C. 1, 5, 377 S.E.2d 581, 584 (1989) (holding a party cannot argue one ground at trial and then an alternative ground on appeal).
We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
AFFIRMED.
FEW, C.J., THOMAS and KONDUROS, JJ., concur.
