Be Still My Heart! Oh what a glorious view! North Carolina is dressed in her finest right now 🌸 So thankful I had the opportunity to hike #hawksbill again a few days ago. The trail is steep but so worth every effort! If you’ve never been, add it to your #bucketlistadventures right now 🤩 May 2024 Nikon Z9 & Nikkor Z 24-120 #momentsbystephanie #hawksbilltrail #northcarolina #linvillegorge #linvillegorgewilderness #bestillmyheart #bestofthetarheelstate #ncoutdoor_inc #ncoutdoors #ourstatemag #qcexclusive #hikemore #trailful #appalachian_explorers #onlyinnorthcarolina #discover_carolinas #carolinaliving #explorecarolina #scenicnc #viewsfordays #hawksbillmountain #azaleas #bucketlist #womenwhoexplore #nikonphotography #worththeclimb #ncmountains #burkecounty
It’s another wonderful #waterfallwednesday 🤩 Time to take a break from all the gorgeous #auroraborealis photos in your feed and enjoy some peaceful waterfall scenes! Today’s waterfall feature is #mashforkfallswv located in #campcreekstatepark . This is a spot I enjoy visiting frequently. It’s super easy to access and is just a peaceful place to spend a couple hours even if I’m not there for photography. On my most recent visit, I didn’t even plan to photograph the falls but couldn’t pass up an opportunity to do a little river wading on my last day there and capture a few images. Hope you enjoy! 5-1-24 Nikon Z9 & Nikkor Z 24-120 f/10 ISO 64 3 sec All Rights Reserved (c) Stephanie Sheffield ✨Sharing is Appreciated ✨ #momentsbystephanie #waterfallwednesday #almostheavenwv #westvirginia #bestofthemountainstate #bestoftheusa_water #onlyinwestvirginia #mashforkfallswv #mashforkfalls #wvexplored #wvphotography #campcreekstatepark #waterfalls💦 #waterfallsofinstagram #exploremore #dowhatyoulove #inspiredbynature #whatsyourpassion #landscapephotographymagazine #tamarack #tamarackwv #chasingwaterfalls #wvstateparks #wvliving #outdoorphotomag #mercercounty #blueridgeoutdoors #chasingwaterfalls #wvstateparks #campinglife
Unbelievable opportunity to witness the Northern Lights all the way down in Gaston County, North Carolina! So thankful I was able to capture a few images with my camera.

Happy #waterfallwednesday from #wildandwonderfulwv 💕 It’s been a good while since I’ve posted anything, and especially a waterfall on a Wednesday 😉. Life has just been a bit busy and I’ve found little time for Instagram but today I’m enjoying a peaceful camping trip in the beautiful state of WV. Yesterday I was able to make it back to one of my all-time favorite places….Sandstone Falls. Such a gorgeous place! Thankful I was able to capture a few images before the rain drove me away. (Scroll to see the quickly changing conditions) Hope you enjoy! @wvtourism #momentsbystephanie #sandstonefallsboardwalk #sandstonefalls #wvliving #bestoftheglobe_waterfalls #westvirginia #wvtourism #newrivergorge #newrivergorgenationalpark #visitwv #summerscountywv #waterfallsofwv #waterfallsofwestvirginia #explorewv #wv_natureshots #waterfallphotography #waterfalllovers #getoutside #chasingwaterfalls #waterfall_lover #hintonwv #almostheaven #almostheavenwv #nrg
Would have loved to see the 2024 Solar Eclipse in its totality but at least I was able to capture a few shots from my home in NC. We reached a little over 80% in our area. Glad I made it home from vacation in time to watch.
