Fall Escapes

This small creek meanders along the BRP north headed toward Deep Gap and West Jefferson. There’s quite a few pull-off’s where you can check it out. I was hoping for some fallen leaves still in color, but it was still a beautiful spot on a cloudy morning

The pastures and landscapes of this area never stop amazing me. The colors they can produce are irresistible, complimentary, and beautiful.

Here’s Linn Cove Viaduct two weeks ago, just at peak colors for this area of the Blue Ridge Parkway.

On Saturday, Grandfather Mountain and the surrounding high peaks received their first snow of the season! The landscapes covered in fall color really made for an exciting day out.

Driving away from Mt. Mitchell on the BRP north, we watched the sun set behind it.

This stream may be small, but at this moment on the Boone Fork Trail, i had a renewed appreciation for the trail. It’s 5 miles take you thru a fantastic mecca of Appalachian perfection.
Boone Fork Bridge

Rainy and foggy days are the best to shoot. This Boone Fork Bridge is always a great subject. Great light thru the trees, and rushing creek below it, and plenty of boulders for contrast, climbing, and of course, tripods.

Now that spring is upon us, some rain has filled creeks and rivers, brightened greens, and it’s brought us my favorite time of year to get out and see new life.

Taken on Sunset Beach, NC, this was one of the most spectacular sunrises I’ve ever seen, and for once, I was prepared to take its picture.

It’s about time to post my boy up here. Max has been with me for 4 years now and has been with me while I’ve taken just about every photo and certainly on every hike.
Sun Rays over Blue Ridge

Sun and clouds display beautiful rays over the appalachians on the NC/TN border.
Sunrise Over Boone
From a great small park at the top of Howard’s Knob in Boone you can get some great views south.
Night Moves
It’s a real pain to come up with a name for all these photos! But these clouds were movin’!
Birch Root
The willingness of nature to survive and thrive is beyond me. Instead of failing, this seed spread its’ roots down over 6 feet of exposed rock to find the soil.
