Faded Trillium, Eastatoee Gorge, SC

Endemic to a few localized areas of the southern Appalachians in the Savannah River drainage, this lush bed of Faded Yellow Trilliums was growing in an Eastern Hemlock glade that no longer exists due to the hemlock adelgid that swept through the region in the late 1990s and early 2000s. This photo was taken the first week of May, 1998 - Fuji Velvia 50 4x5, Zone 6 Field Camera, Schneider 90mm at F45 aperture, Estimated 1 Second Exposure
