Cloud - Transylvania County                                                                                                                          Steve Dixon
I'd been hiking pretty much all day, and trying to make a picture that conveyed the wide-open feeling of the heath
balds near Shining Rock Wilderness.  I never did get it.  Frustrated with my inability to rise to the challenge, I was
on my way back to the car to head home, ready for a cool beverage to ease my pain.  Walking the Art Loeb Trail,
I topped the last hill and saw this incredible cloud.  I almost dropped the camera trying to set it up before the
cloud moved or the light changed.  I knew there was an opportunity to make a special photograph, and I was
terrified I'd blow it.  I continue to be pleased with the result, even though the negative is complicated to print.
As most people seem to
prefer them, prices are for
framed prints, ready to
hang.  I use a very nice
matt black wood frame 7/8
of an inch wide, with a white
mat.  If you would like to
order unframed prints, go to
the "Purchase" page for
pricing.
