It’s official, fall is in full bloom in North Carolina. For the past few weeks we’ve seen peeps of red, yellow, and orange; but this week it’s full fledge foliage and I can’t get enough of it. Weeks like this make me truly thankful to live in such a beautiful state. I’m also thankful for the amazing photographers who capture the beauty and seem to make these moments in time stand still. I received so many great pictures this week and am excited to share them with the readers.
"As I was capturing a spectacular sunset from Beacon Heights along the Blue Ridge Parkway, I noticed a father and son also taking in the last rays of light as they lit up the clouds and the autumn leaves below." - Matt Plyer
"For my first post here, I'm sharing my photo of Laurel Mill. Located outside of Louisburg, NC. Our state has many old grist mills throughout the our state. I have photographed 25 so far. I still have a few more on my list! " - Jeff Pettitt
"In the Cataloochee Valley in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park are several old homes, barns, churches and other buildings formerly belonging to the several families who settled the area. On a recent visit to Cataloochee to photograph the elk I took the opportunity to photograph several of the houses, barns and churches. This is the Caldwell House, built in 1903, as viewed from the barn." - David Hill
"The end of the first month of autumn, 2015 came to an end viewing the sunset fro Flat Rock along the Blue Ridge Parkway. A pleasant evening with mild temperatures to watch the closure of another day in western North Carolina. " - Danny Richard Buxton
"After climbing Rough Ridge in the dark, not knowing if there would be a 'visual reward' waiting at the top, I was overwhelmed with the scene that appeared at sunrise.
North Carolina's beauty is truly endless. From our mountains to the Outer Banks, it simply doesn't get any better than NC." - Greg Mills
What did you think of this weeks selection?
Photographers, North Carolina has a beautiful landscape, there’s no denying that, but what about buildings or places that make North Carolina ‘home’ to you? Is it a BBQ shack, a large tree in a corn field, or a beautiful old house? For next week, I want to focus more on places! Send me your best ‘places’ pictures that really capture the essence of you Tar Heel ‘home.’
