SNEAK “PEAKS” ➡️ scroll for more Here’s a fun play on words for our #mountainmonday post. These two images were taken during my Spring #waterfallsandvistas workshop. Our group waited patiently for sunset as we watched the clouds rolling by. Unfortunately,as sunset time drew nearer, the sky just continued to fill with clouds but thankfully a few little pockets opened up and we at least got a glimpse of those long range mountain peaks…thus the name, Sneak “Peaks” 😉 (c) Stephanie Sheffield All Rights Reserved Sharing is always welcome 😊 #momentsbystephanie #mondayvibes #mountainlove #sunsetlovers #chasinglight #goldenhour #goldenhourphotography #woolybackoverlook #waterrockknob #blueridgemountains #wncmagazine #wncmountains #ilovenc #blueridgemoments #blueridgeparkway #mountainlife #bestofthetarheelstate #ncweekend #ourstatemag #blueridgeoutdoors #appalachian #appalachian_explorers #cherokee #maggievalley #visitnc #northcarolina #onlyinnc #sneakpeaks

“Moo-ve Over, Sunset” 🌅🐄 I came for the landscape… But these curious beauties moo-ved right into the spotlight — and stole the whole show. Unexpected moments like this are my favorite part of being a nature photographer. Captured near Lancaster PA just after sunset, their silhouettes, the soft light, and that whimsical tree made this feel like something straight out of a storybook. ✨✨✨ @chickfila — your iconic cows might have some new recruits. Just sayin’. 😉 ✨✨✨✨ (I’d love to see this plastered on one of your amazing billboards! @chickfila) (c) Stephanie Sheffield All Rights Reserved 😊Sharing is appreciated #momentsbystephanie #mooveover #eatmorchikin #sunsetcows #chickfilalovers #chickfilalove #chickfilacow #dairydrama #chickfilacows #cowsunset #unexpectedstars #ruralbeauty #pennsylvaniafarms #cowphotography #naturemoments #goldenhourglow #countrymagic #naturethroughmyeyes #surprisesaturday #saturday #lancasterpa #lancastercounty #nikonphotographer #pennsylvania #farmlife #ruralamerica #visitusa #visitpennsylvania #visitlancasterpa #bestofthekeystonestate

Oops…Almost forgot it was WATERFALL WEDNESDAY! 😳 Better late than never I guess. Here’s a recent image from a less visited,but fairly easy to access, waterfall in Sapphire NC. D.E.W. Falls isn’t far from the main road but is tucked away past overgrown rhododendron bushes and fallen trees. Once you clear the end o the path you are treated to your own little oasis 💕. Just watch out for the poison ivy along the trail! 😬 This image is not the format or composition I would have normally gone for at a waterfall of type, however, when you accidentally leave all your other lenses in the car and end up arriving with only an ultra wide zoom, you just go with the flow and make the best of it. Hope you enjoy! . .

📸 Macro Monday Moment Up close and personal with nature’s finest details 🌻🦋 This little beauty landed on the perfect sunflower, and I was lucky enough to be there with my lens. I’m always amazed at the tiny worlds happening right around us—so much detail, color, and life. It’s a reminder of just how intricate and breathtaking the small things can be. Let’s never stop looking closer. 💛 . .

It’s such an honor to see my work being recognized. I feel incredibly blessed to have my image, “Where the Heavens Meet”, in the summer issue of @wncmagazine This image was a professional category finalist in the “Images of Western North Carolina” contest. There are so many amazing photographs in this magazine from a number of very talented photographers. I stopped by Barnes & Noble in Hickory, NC today and found a nice supply of them. If you don’t already have your copy, now is a good time to pick one up! 🤩 . . #momentsbystephanie #wncmagazine #wheretheheavensmeet #astrophotos #astrophotography #gratefulthankfulblessed #publishedphotographer #published📸✨ #northcarolinaartists #ncphotography #imagesofwnc #wncmountains #barnesandnoble #westernnorthcarolina #visitnc #ourstatemag #onlyinnorthcarolina #northcarolina #northcarolinaoutdoors #carolinaliving #nightphotography #bestofthetarheelstate #summer2025
Sunflowers 🌻 - Summertime’s extra special blessings!

If it weren’t for sunflowers, the heat of July would be unbearable!  So thankful for these beautiful blooms that bring so much joy to me and especially to the lovely little birds 💕
