Seven Sisters

Thank you, Pam. It was very chilly though.

Thank you, powerpuff. It was beautiful and peaceful there but also very cold!!!

Thank you, naturelover. I have played this golf course though not this time of year (closed for winter). I think every fairway has an awesome view of the surrounding mountains.

I didn’t realize there were wild roses called “Seven Sisters.” Interesting. Your part of the country has much higher mountains and I think it is easier to find vista shots there than in these mountains. Thanks for your compliment!

Thanks, AnaCB. I have played golf there-but not this time of year!

Thank you, AngieM. I hardly recognized you as you have a new avatar!!! Very nice!!! (:

Thank you, FelicityB. Maybe I will go back up there and take some more photos when there is snow on the golf course too.

Thank you, Grumpy02. I was surprised there wasn’t more snow up there (Dec.2, 08).

Thank you, mlou. If I had had my golf clubs with me, I would have had the entire course to myself! (:

Thank you, Ray4cam. This was taken late in the afternoon. I would like to have gotten Mt MItchell in the photo but I would have been shooting into the sun. WIll try to get up there and take more photos in the morning light.

THank you Christopher. Yes, I think the mountain heights here and the terrain are very similar to Great Smokies which are also lovely and dramatic.

Thanks David. This was taken about 45 minutes before sunset. However as the golf course is completely surrounded by mountains, the sun was already disappearing behind some of them resulting in interesting light and shadow effects on the fairway.

Thank you, Christine. I have played golf on this course and the scenery is so beautiful it is hard to concentrate on the golf game!!!

Thank you Bela. This place was totally surrounded by mountains.

Thank you, Jeanine! Am glad you enjoyed the photo. Thanks for your kind comment too!!!

I remember that. Was it a movie too? Thank you for your kind compliment. Yes, lighting can really make a difference.

Thank you, micmac. THe lighting really did make a big difference, I think. Was very late in the afternoon and the sun had already disappeared behind some of the taller mountains.

Thank you, Di! THe golf course was almost totally surrounded by mountains.

Seems like it might have been a tv series too. I remember it now.

Thank you, Bela. The late afternoon light really helped too.

Thank you very much, Tim. I am glad you enjoyed this. If it had been warmer that day, I might have been tempted to play golf there. Is an interesting course and surrounded by the mountains
