National Geographic named the Art Loeb Trial one of the 30 best hikes in North American. Right off the Blue Ridge Parkway at milepost 420.
View taking advantage of the rocks on Black Balsam knob along the Art Loeb Trail. Infrared black and white image.
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.
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.
Walking along the Mirror Lake trail I was able to capture this image of Tenaya Creek. The infrared black and white creates great contrast in the sky and water.
Went back each day in the park but this was the best opportunity to photograph Half Dome from the bridge over the Merced River. The clouds and light just didn't quite cooperate for the image I was looking to create. Still better than the first time I photographed it 16 years ago...
