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.

I was visiting Asheville with my girlfriend who had gone to school there and she wanted to take me to a camping spot that her and her friends used to visit. It was a bald patch of land on a hill that had 360 degree views out over the Smokey Mountains. It had been a full moon the night before, so as we woke up, while the moon was setting behind us, the sun was rising in front of us. It was so peaceful, but also really exhilarating.

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.

After hiking to the Catawba Falls in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, I took this shot of a backpack on a rock close to the waterfall. The backpacker left his hat right on it and it seems to be looking at the waterfall as well…

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…
