Do you have a mentor on ActiveRain? This is indeed a generous community and I have several mentors, but for photography…whether he knows it or not…my mentor is William Johnson from San Diego, California. When I was really new to AR…holy cow…I missed my one year anniversary! February 22nd, 2011. Anyway, as usual I’ve digressed. When I was brand new, William visited one of my posts and took a shine to my photos. He took half an hour out of his schedule and spent it with me on the phone giving me invaluable advice about how to edit better and where to edit better. He also helped me through the mechanics of inserting images into the posts. The other day I posted a collage of a few photos I took of the Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC when Leslie attended the Arts & Crafts Conference there a...

It only takes about 40 minutes from Sylva, NC to drive to the city of Asheville…our largest city in Western North Carolina. Here’s just a couple of examples of the beauty of Asheville, the fabulous Grove Park Inn with it’s commanding view of downtown Asheville and the mountain vista overlooking the golf course plus a bronze statue of a young girl drinking from a fountain on the busy streets of the downtown area.         Asheville is a well-known haven of artists and musicians and touches similar to those in these photos are found everywhere in the city.   Definitely well worth the drive!

A month ago, Karen Hawkins posted beautiful photographs of the sun in a winter sky that looked surprisingly like a moonrise. As I walked on the terrace at the incredible Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC yesterday afternoon I noticed that Karen’s Canada sky was here in the mountains of Western North Carolina! Or maybe our sky was in Canada? It is a small world indeed. The plants I shot through looked like some kind of oleander type plant but I don’t know what they are. The plants are huge, probably 8 feet high and this time of year are yellowish and straw like. The sun shone weakly through a winter sky and I took several shots. To me they look very otherworldly.
