Many photographers, including me, can sometimes be found roaming downtown alleyways looking for the architectural abstracts or street photography gems hidden behind the main street façade.

This is from my North Carolina mountains visit last October, the composition was processed shortly after and ready to publish, but was forgotten. Fortunately, I found it while planning my 2021 trip – coming up next week. It was captured from the Fryingpan Mountain Lookout Tower near Pisgah Mountain on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The tower’s stairwell was blocked at the base, but I was able to squeeze through and overcome my fear of heights to climb to just under the top platform. I was rewarded with an amazing South Fork Mills River Valley landscape and dramatic light!

These two curious horses cooperated with my attempt to compose and interesting photo during an expedition of the North Fork New River area of Ashe County, North Carolina. I shot this at 110 mm with my Nikkor Z 70-200mm f2.8 lens.

Stalking the rolling hills of northeast Ashe Country, North Carolina, I found this cool light about 30 minutes before sunset. I suspect the lines were plowed into the hillside for crops before it was later fenced off to keep cows. For the best viewing experience, click to view a high resolution version of the composition.

Back in 2015 I found this gem on the backroads of Forsyth County, near Winston-Salem, North Carolina. I must have gotten busy and never got around to reviewing and processing. By accident, I came across it again a few weeks ago. I’m sure there are other forgotten treasures in my catalog. If only I had more time for treasure hunting!
Cheers!

I captured this fisherman casting as the sun was about to set on Oak Island, one of the southern most barrier islands in North Carolina.

Camp North End is a massive adaptive reuse project on a 76-acre industrial site north of Uptown Charlotte, North Carolina. There were numerous old warehouse structures offering photographers a rich array of compositional opportunities.

This dying tree caught my eye while walking through a local greenway. Whether its old barns, houses, antiques or dying trees, there is always transience of life and beauty to be appreciated in decay.
