Winter Delights: More Photos from Our Jan/Feb Photo Essay

In our Jan/Feb 2013 issue, Photographer Lori Kincaid takes us along as she explores the winter landscape surrounding her mountain-top home on the border of Tennessee and North Carolina. She finds magic in the hushed quiet of a winter day, when the earth reflects the sky and the stars come out at night to take your breath away. Here are even more beautiful photos we didn’t have room to show you in the magazine!

To purchase prints of these images, or for more information about how you can learn from Lori Kincaid firsthand in private and seasonal workshops (as well as impromptu winter photo tours when snow is in the forecast) visit kincaidphoto.com
