Georgia, Georgia, Georgia. And what a fine state it is. For reasons unbeknownst to us, we found ourselves compelled to celebrate every last one of its 59,425 square miles when we awoke from nourishing slumber this morning and pulled the duvet from over our faces. As we drew back our collective curtains, we found our faces struck by magnificent morning light; a light all too reminiscent of those rich hues you only find down in that most famous of American states.
It's a state as beautiful as the name suggests, and with an embarrassment of riches to explore and enjoy: Stone Mountain Park, the cities of Atlanta, Athens, and Savannah, wild horses roaming Cumberland Island, its famous southern hospitality, its iconic peaches, The Varsity—the world's largest drive-in restaurant, Anna Ruby Falls, having your fingerprints taken, the World of Coca-Cola museum, the Blue Ridge Mountains. Ah, #georgia. There really is no place quite like it—it's not so much a state as a state of mind.
So if you find yourself in need of a holiday, whether a week's vacation, city break, or a few days hiking and camping in the best the natural world has to offer, you could do a lot worse than head down to the state of Georgia, USA. Don't forget to get a cute pic while you're there.
These two shots are part of a project I've been working on for just over a year, consisting of mainly minimalist type landscapes in Europe and the United States. All shot with Full Frame Nikon.
"So let me get this straight. You're saying that if I don't return your probably infected with lots of STDs pocket pussy. You're going to take out all your sexual frustrations on me?" Y/N asked.
Hank Hall nodded and towered over him. "That's right, buttmunch."
Y/N frowns. "Buttmunch? Seriously? What are we in some sort of bad college parody show?"
"Just return it to my room by the end of the day, kid. Otherwise, I'm coming for you and that tight ass of yours." Hank warned as he left the room.
Y/N grins watching him leave as he has no intention of giving Hank what he wants. Instead, he's going to get the meathead to fuck him."

It was a dreary Saturday on Chestnut Ridge, but even the bleakest days are brightened by Spring’s dazzling gifts. From top: a wood anemone (Anemone quinquefolia) grudgingly unfolds its petals in search of sunlight; common sassafras (Sassafras albidum) shows off its yellow-green blooms; smooth Solomon’s seal (Polygonatum biflorum), whose pendulous flowers are near to bloom; the magnificent marsh blue violet (Viola cucullata Aiton), a lover of damp stream banks and bogs; heartleaf foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia), whose resplendent flower spikes are matched in beauty by its velvety, luxuriant foliage; and the fragile, sylph-like sessile bellwort (Uvularia sessilifolia), whose principle pollinator (Andrena uvulariae) specializes in this wildflower.
