Blue Ridge Mountains WNC Appalachian Storm

            Light and rain collide over the Blue Ridge Mountains in Western North Carolina during an afternoon storm.

One of the most appealing aspects of being a landscape photographer in the Southern Appalachians is the highly dynamic weather patterns.

The rapidly changing conditions in these mountains force you to stay vigilant and constantly on your toes and ready to go. There's hardly ever a dull moment when you're shooting around these parts!

Hope everyone's having a great start to the week so far, and thank you for stopping by to view my photos.
