The Great Smoky Mountains

Terry and I spent a few days this last week enjoying the fall colors in the Great Smoky Mountains national park.  We rented a chalet in the mountains just outside of Gatlinburg.  The weather turned out not to be too cooperative as it rained every day except one.  But, we still managed to enjoy ourselves and come away with some pretty decent shots.  Believe it or not, cloudy and rainy days produce some of the best shooting conditions for waterfalls and river shots - which was what I was mostly interested in.  There’s just not as much contrast you have to deal with and the light is nice and dispersed.

I posted the pictures in 2 spots - new updates to my Tennessee galleries where I added just a few of the best and a new personal gallery which contains everything.  Just click on any of the pictures or highlighted links to be taken directly to those galleries.
