You are exactly where you need to be ... And you have the choice to stay or move forward, one step at a time :) Either way, enjoy the journey.
It is a general perception that the quality of light moves toward harsh, as the sun moves up the sky, and not ideal for photography. But all rules are eventually meant to be broken :) This particular afternoon I was driving around scouting for a sunset location. Glad the car in front of me slowed down, I applied the breaks and was treated to this view thru the window. It was only for a brief moment - the moving clouds diffused the harsh sunlight. And just a little bit gleamed thru, to light up the kayaker and part of the hill. Always be prepared … it helps, with photography too :)
The Linville Gorge Wilderness Area lies entirely within the Pisgah National Forest. Sometimes referred to as the "Grand Canyon of the East", it is one of the wildest, most rugged gorges in the eastern United States. Given the terrain, it is also an outdoor paradise. This is from the Chimney view overlook that provides a glimpse of Linville falls. The falls view is good, but one can’t miss this lovely view behind, especially with the lovely fall colors. Standing at the edge, the sheer depth of the Gorge was scary and at the same time exhilarating :)
