Description
Land Of The Noonday Sun by HH Photography of Florida.
Deep in the old-growth woodland forests of the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina, sits the Nantahala National Forest. In the Cherokee language, Nantahala means "land of the noonday sun."
The trees are just beginning to take on some of the beautiful colors of autumn as the days shorten and the chill of the winter winds settles over these "Grandfather" mountains - a term of endearment the Cherokee have bestowed on these beloved, ancient mountains.
Driving the back roads, away from the heavily traveled main routes, provides one the opportunity to truly admire and appreciate the natural beauty that is found here. If you've never experienced the mystery and aura of these majestic mountains, be sure to plan a trip to this area ... you won't be disappointed. It's what keeps us returning over and over again. Photographed near Highlands, NC.

What a refreshing, calming scene - I love the way the blue in the distance adds depth and suggests the expanse of the forest. Congratulations on the sale.
