Description
This image is from one of my favorite places in North Carolina: a small set of rapids along the Chattooga River, near Cashiers. I visited right in the transition between winter and spring. The air was warming, but the rivers were still frigid, leading to beautiful mist near the water. The leaves were still gone, but the dense thicket near the river's shores was mostly rhododendron, which are evergreen. This allowed me to create a lush-feeling ambiance with the atmospherics that only come in winter.
