Late Afternoon Delight

I shot this photograph yesterday afternoon in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Originally, I planned on visiting Cades Cove, but the blue skies I’d anticipated had become hazy and bright, instead.

So, I found a parking area and followed a creek back into the woods, pleased to find this mossy landscape with cascades and dappled light.

You can find many fine prints available in my gallery, also – so, check it out.

    Refreshing photograph, Phil! It reminded me of the lyrics of this song I used to love:
    “Tennessee line just changed my mind
    Well, it’s my heart I’ll follow this time”
    Thanks for sharing!
