Welcome!
Welcome, Clint. I live in Greer, SC and visit your area often. I first began visiting the area as a young child with my parents as it was often an after church Sunday afternoon ride. I'm an amateur but I love photographing the mountains.
Welcome Clint....
Also from NC myself, just outside of Charlotte...
I'm sure things look different in your area since the fires
Welcome Clint. Look forward to your posts.

Hey there! My name is Clint Calhoun and I have been lurking around this site for a couple of years now, but have never joined. The work that gets posted here is wonderful and I feel inspired every time the Photography Digest arrives in my Inbox. So I got up the courage (I'm a little shy) and registered and I hope my own work will be well-received. I'm a biologist from Rutherford County, North Carolina and have been working in the Hickory Nut Gorge area of North Carolina (that's the Chimney Rock/Lake Lure area if you are familiar with NC) for my entire career. I picked up photography as part of my work and it has blossomed into a wonderful hobby. I'm currently shooting a Canon EOS Rebel T3i and just trying to work on my craft. Always open to constructive criticism and advice. I look forward to participating on the site.

Welcome Clint. I grew up in Sylva and spent many summers in Chimney Rock/Lake Lure area. I used to take my wife and two sons camping in that area many years ago when we lived in Charlotte. One of my favorite pictures is of the large tree in front of the old hotel in Lake Lure in full fall colors. Lionel

Welcome Clint from another biologist in Raleigh, NC. You live in an amazing part of our state. Can't wait to see some of your work, both from a creative standpoint, and to just bring back memories of Lake Lure and Rutherford County! Cheers! Dan

Welcome, Snake. You didn't step on one up there did you? I have snakes in my back yard, Matthews NC. I just joined myself today 12/30/16 I'm not even an amature yet but here I am trying to learn something new and exciting in my retirement years. Oh yeh! I have the same camera too! Good one. I meant I posted my first post today!

Hey Clint. That's a beautiful area to work in although I hear it's a little singed at the moment. We had crews working the area for two or three weeks and they came back and said how appreciative the people were to the fire crews.
I really up in Hendersonville and have lived in Kannapolis for over 40 years now. Glad to know that there are so many fellow Tarheels here. Welcome
Welcome. I have done a little photography around Chimney Rock and Lake Lure when I lived in Matthews, NC. It is a beautiful area. I look forward to seeing some of your work.
