Lehigh at Dusk – Photographing Pennsylvania’s Natural Beauty

Published October 22, 2012

Allen Mowery is a storyteller and creative explorer whose work spans photography, writing, and media production. A nationally published photographer turned multi-disciplinary creator, he blends artistry, strategy, and human connection in everything he does. Whether behind a camera, a microphone, or a keyboard, Allen’s mission is simple: to tell stories that resonate and reveal the deeper layers of the world around us.

I am not a landscape photographer, but I finally had a chance to stop down by the Lehigh River on this time through the quaint little hamlet of Jim Thorpe, PA. It was beautiful and sunny the entire drive out, but once I started coming off the mountain it became densely cloudy and the fog had begun rolling in. Which, all together, made for a good photo.

Looking down at the river from the top of the gorge, it doesn’t appear that impressive, especially for all the whitewater tourism the town receives. But, being down at the water’s edge, seeing the current and the several-foot swells, I really wanted to take a kayak down through.
