Thistle! Aside from wild carrot, it’s my favorite summer wildflower.
Here is a shot of my favorite meadow in WNC. It’s chock full of thistle and pollinators throughout the summer and it’s one of my favorite places in the world.
Found an injured wren, and he begrudgingly let me get a little close.
I’ve been playing around with my 35mm and depth of field. Cooler days and changing foliage have proven to be very motivating. Here are way too many photos of leaves and things.
Septembers in Western North Carolina are beautiful. The days are still warm, but they seem to get a bit shorter and the nights cool off significantly. These shots were taken at my favorite place in the world, the valley below Sam’s Knob, located in Shining Rock Wilderness area. I found plenty of lovely yellows with my Fuji XT30 and the Laowa 65mm macro lens.
Here are some other fun shots from that day, too.
We went back to another favorite area just above Sam’s Knob a few weeks later. Here are some more September yellows from Black Balsam Knob.
Very new to photography. Here to post pics and document this fun new journey. Below are some shots from a secret garden in downtown Asheville, NC. I am using Fuji’s XT30 and Laowa’s 65mm macro lens.
Cheers!
