Shot at Cataloochee Valley, which is located on the North Carolina side of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The valley is home to more than 100 elk who often graze within yards of the main road – and sometimes like to snarl traffic by jaywalking.

It almost seemed unreal, how beautiful the mountains looked during sunset. Almost like a painting. The entire time the sun was setting, we all just were silent and in awe of how beautiful our earth is.

Landing in Bryson city, we kept hearing about the Road to Nowhere, so we had to see for ourselves. We learned the story of this historic tunnel and it sure does lead to nowhere…

We were driving all over the Great Smoky National Park looking for photos to take. There was nothing like this lookout. It’s crazy how tiny we are in comparison to the miles of mountains ahead.

We hiked up to the top of a ridge in the Great Smoky Mountains for a view, but as soon as we started climbing the fog moved in. While we didn’t get the panoramic views from above we’d hoped for, we did get some spooky landscapes.

I took this image the first day I was in Gatlinburg, Tn. I was blown away with how this photo turned out. Hope you enjoy.

Staying in the Smoky Mountains in early September provides a rich display of foliage to photograph in the early morning fog.

In the surrounding cities of Asheville, NC, you’ll find a variety of farms, from apple tree fields to freely roaming livestock. I pulled the car over to capture a few of the bulls and cows, and their calves. In the far distance, stood one bull in particular (this one). I saw him from a distance, staring me down. I started to capture those near the fence, and after every few photos, I would look up. The bull closer, every time. Then, I looked up and there he was. Death staring me from 20 feet away, at most. I took his photo and slowly went on my way as to let him continue guarding his herd.
