Rosebay Rhodies
They are near peak on many higher-elevation streams.

This was taken this past weekend while leading a weekend workshop for UNC-Asheville.

Sweet shot, Richard.

I find my eyes following the waterfalls to me and then following the rocks on the right side (my right) of the picture back into the forest. This picture really tells a story.

Very nice Richard. I found a few good spots with rhodies on our trip last week. ( Thanks again for your help) I'll try to post a few from that trip as soon as I can do some processing. I have been working on a wedding album and just finished it last night. Maybe now I can get to the NC shots.

The depth of the scene does it for me. Really nice dimension.
Don you have to do like Thomas Biggs and just "happen" to show up where Richard and Jerry are leading groups :biggrin:

Richard,

Did you hike down from Graveyard or up from Big East Fork?

Thanks,

Steve

Steve,

Neither. There is a trail from the BRP that takes you right to this spot. Its just below the gorge that descends below Lower Yellowstone Falls.
