The higher elevation leaves were mostly gone, but undeterred I traveled with a good friend up Cowee Mountain overlook. The haze hung heavy in the sky, a bit lighter down in the valley, while it all started as unremarkable, almost ugly, I waited. Recomposing the scene several times, just to see what would happen. I suspected we would get a show. The temperatures dipped further and faster as I waited forcing me to add layers on. Finally, the sun sets, but the shot wasn’t what I wanted, so I wait, the winds picking up as they often do this time of year. Finally, the sky begins to glow, the glow begins to spread, the blue haze in the valleys bellow shifted purple… and finally, I had my shot. The sky like fire on the cold evening, the haze like smoke over an ocean of mountain waves, surely I could capture the essence of the moment.
