Connestee Falls Residents Capture Fall In Western North Carolina

Autumn in Western North Carolina is the beginning of colorful changes in nature, blissfully cool days, and some cold blustery nights.  Jackets and boots aren’t the only items to come out of storage in Connestee Falls during the fall. Residents throughout the community get their camera gear and their creative eye ready for capturing the best fall photos across the community. It’s always a joy to see so many people and local scenes in these wonderful photo submissions. But there were five that stood out and selected as winners in the 2017 Fall Photo Contest.

The winning photos earned each resident photographer well received recognition here on the Reflections Blog and in the community newsletter along with a gift certificate to the Overlook Clubhouse.

Landscape photography at its finest.  Jody Lee knows a winning photo scene when she sees it, can you say “frame-worthy?”

Captured here is the beauty of a Connestee Falls Thanksgiving and likely some tranquil reflection after a plate full of Turkey.
