Jump Off Rock in Hendersonville gives visitors a breathtaking view of the city below and the mountains in the foreground, one of photographer Barbara Shook’s favorite spots to take

Kelly Jones got up close and personal with this leaf, showing its detail and its vibrant color.

Kathleen Gancer, who just completed her second photography course at SCC, took her first waterfall photograph at Pearson Falls, capturing the ‘white water’ that photographers long to get in their shots.

Along the Person Falls trail, Sebrinia Johnson found this scenic view of water rolling lazily across rock formations along a stream.
