The Appalachian mountains here in Western North Carolina can have fairly intense weather shifts. When I began this day, it started in a storm, heavy rain, but bright sunshine blazing through cracks in the clouds, only a mile up the road from my first stop that day, near perfect blue skies with just a hint of dark on the horizon. A little further on there were clouds streaking high in the sky. I relaxed into the current mountain mood, worked on finding a composition for the day, and at last I ended up at this location. I took a few quick photos, and then we were hit by a wave of low lying clouds, creating patterns in the sky, the other photographers on the scene stopped, waited for the clouds to clear. I stopped for a moment, changed lenses, and recomposed a unique scene developing just down into the valley.
