Bonfire BBQ in West Asheville is a great for low and slow wood cooked BBQ. Will add additional images to organize a community site soon. If you want to check out the menu it can be seen here: http://www.bonfireavl.com/
I've always liked this little garden shed with a "green" roof at the North Carolina Arboretum. Living in full sun the mosses reduce the heat for the building. The shed has a rainwater misting irrigation system to support the native mosses.
As much as I love traveling it's nice to walk around your home town. Simple shot of Main Street in Hendersonville.
A couple shots from City Hall in Hendersonville. Many of historic buildings here were designed by Stillwell and this is no exception. Completed in 1928 and located at 145 5th Ave East.
Zia is a local favorite for tacos in West Asheville. Working on a community site featuring restaurants, shops, activities and the subdivisions for the neighborhood. Should be up and running in 2020 but will start organizing images here. If you want to check out Zia's menu the site can be found here: https://ziataco.com
The Asheville Mural by Jordan Atkinson is located at 507 Haywood Road. Created for Haywood Common and the Whale. Finally caught it on a day without cars in the parking lot. If you'd like to check out the artist work his site is below. http://jatkinsonstudios.com/
One of my favorite shots of Half Dome from the trip to Yosemite. Directional light from the afternoon sun hit the granite but left the valley in shadow.
Yosemite Valley Chapel. Walking the valley loop I came across the backlit church. Sun flare makes it look like I'm sending a message up...
Similar to the Mirror Lake images, these were taken in close proximity. They don't have that "mirror" of the mountain but I like how the rocks help frame the composition.
Hiking in the Tenaya Canyon at Mirror Lake. There were a lot of people swimming on the hot day but there were locations up and down the river to find reflections.
