North Carolina- October 2014- Black and white's

These are the black and white images I took while on my trip to North Carolina back in October. The images are in order from my start in Asheville. I traveled on the Blue Ridge Parkway for a day. Stopping and enjoying the magnificent mountains. Checked out downtown Asheville, and then I ventured to the coast, ending in Wilmington.

This is a mix of landscapes, mountains, nature, to textures, shapes, things I noticed, and art pieces.

While in Wilmington I was able to check out Airlie Gardens.  The last few images are of that, with the last image being the mystery grave. It was a very beautiful place to spend an afternoon in the hot North Carolina sun.

Purple night

I took this in North Carolina, about six years ago on MCAS New River and Onslow Beach. No, these images are NOT Photoshopped. These are straight from the camera. How I achieved this, was because of the full moon that night, and the white balance setting on my camera. If you noticed in the first and second image you can see a silouette of a crane!! The crane was actually much closer then it appears here, but I was super excited to be able to capture him at the end of the pier. It was such a warm night, and the light was amazing as you can see. It makes me miss the East coast....

Brandy's house

The above image is of my dear friend Brandy. She was one of the first people to have purchased my pictures. As you can see she bought quite a few! I think they look amazing hanging on her wall. They fit so well with the rest of her things. I know she had been waiting for a while to find the perfect spot for them, and I think she found it. Thank you Brandy!!

How I miss the beach...
