Earl’s been posting images of the Smoky Mountains and stirring up some fond memories of a trip I took back in October of 2003 with fellow photographer Jeff Svoboda. Jeff and I spent a week shooting early mornings and late afternoons. My first experience in the park, loved it and hope it was not my last one. What a great place to experience. As I’ve been cleaning things up on my hard drive I’ve also been finding images I’ve forgotten about. Here’s a morning sunrise from Foothills Parkway: First light.
