Forest, on the way to Cades Cove
I found this at the side of the road on the way to Cades Cove in Great Smoky Mountain National Park. It is one of my favorite images from that trip. I might not have made this image except for my wife’s interest in the tree formation, so her eye deserves as much credit as anything else.

Beautiful, John! I’m ashamed to say that I haven’t visited Cade’s Cove even though we live fairly close – in Brevard, NC. Thanks for sharing this beautiful place with us.
John Wright replied
Thank you. It is a truly beautiful place, it is no surprise it is the most visited park in the U.S. I suggest you go early in the day and during off-peak season though.
