Whiteside Mountain, Cashiers, NC

I have been yearning for some unpolluted night-time sky recently.  As I live close to downtown Raleigh, it's difficult to see, let alone capture the number of stars that are right above our heads.  Whiteside mountain sits between Cashiers and Highlands, NC.  Whiteside Cove offers a magnificent view of the rocky face.  Venturing out with a flashlight after 10pm this past weekend, I hiked to this barn and made this image.   The crescent moon had already set, so the only illumination comes from the night sky.
