Appalachian Allure

Asheville NC Spring Flowers Scenic Mountains Landscape Photography

Sunset over Craggy Gardens Catawba Rhododendron flowers blooming as Spring comes to the Blue Ridge Parkway near Asheville in early June. Every once in a while something amazing happens in these hills, when the Appalachian Mountains landscape becomes a living and breathing entity with richly colored spring flowers under shifting fog and dramatic sunset skies. I was truly blessed to witness this scene and it was all I could do to concentrate on capturing it rather than just standing in awe of the natural beauty that was unfolding in front of me.
