Yearling black baer cub seperated from its mama by tourist.I got the tourist parted an him back on his way to mama. I had a portable police scanner tuned to the park system and bluffed everyone into thinking I was with the park. My shot was made from the edge of the lane I created for him to walk to the other side of the road.What some tourist don’t realize Mama might come lookin for him which was to there backs. Just because some bears in parks seem aproachable doesn’t mean they want attack unexpectedly.

Morning sun filters through the trees at John Olivers Cabin with a few dogwoods in the background…The cabin is almost completly surrounded by split-rail fence also…...The Oliver’s bought land in the Cove in 1826 and this cabin site remained in the family until the Park was established. The house is typical of many found on the eastern frontier in the mid-1850s, and reflects the skills and techniques brought into the mountains by descendants of British and European immigrants. This cabin is located on the Cades Cove Loop Road, in the Great Smoky Mountain N.P.

This is what the rhododendron looks like in full bloom. native to the great smoky mountains, millions in this area. it starts to bloom in the 2nd week of june, but it’s at it’s peak the later part of june. / before it starts to bloom its full of tight buds, resembling a avacado, then it each one starts to open, and this is the result / best time to shoot this flower is in low lighting. any other time of day you will pretty much end up with blown/washed out flowers about 100% of the time. / my other shot of the buds is here come the rhodies / if you want an idea of what it looks like before it blooms completely

one of the many sites you will see coming thru the great smoky mountains. trout fishing. couldnt have asked for better timing, having a fisherman set in the right gear, the water, and lighting. / i shot this in black and white, it has not been converted , and yes i do have color, that will be uploaded later, but i wanted something different ;), and this was shot with my new 17-85mm lens :) i love it already :):)
-
trout fishing is a huge thing to do in the great smoky mountains. this fly fisherman had on the perfect gear of what one would think of when thinking of fly fishing. the rain started coming down lightly, and i did get a few shots of him fishing in the rain in BW also :)

A young bear with mom looking at all the tourist piled up in the middle of Laurel Creek Road…. one of the biggest problems in the park and especially Cades Cove is people stopping in the middle of the road to take pictures. Due to low light and being hand held I had to use an ISO of 800 to get this shot…imagine the results from the many cell phone shots that were in use also….Black Bear, ursus americanus…Mama’s ear tags were digitally removed if anyone wants the shot with them in, please let me know….Shot was taken in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park…noise may be visible on larger prints……Black bears in the park are wild animals, caution should be use in approaching them…The bear in Cades Cove are a little more tolerable to people than these would be. Those in the cove see 1000’s of people daily. People thinking that because they got close to one in the cove, they could anywhere in the park. Mama bear did a false charge to some that were trying to approach them a few minutes after this shot….Those in the cove and elsewhere can kill you. A young child was mauled in the park this year as he bent over to play in the water..To the bear he probably looked like a small deer…

One of the more modern structures in Cades Cove. A lot of the barns that were there, have gradually fallen in and nature reclaimed them. I can remember back to when a few people still lived in the Cove. They were allowed to live there by an arrangement with the park service when the land was sold. They are all gone now including those that stayed in the cabins in the Elkmont area. This barn sits beside the Cades Cove Loop Road. It still is in great shape and will probably out live me. I wish I had thought and taken the time 30 years ago and shoot a lot of the structures that are forever gone. Hind site is always better than foresight. Never pass up a chance for a shot, what you pass up today may be gone tomorrow…a block and tackle was often hung from the overhang of the roof to pull hay up and into the window up top.. image taken as mornings 1st light tops over the ridge to warm the already beautiful colors,and intensify parts of the field back of the barn…Cades Cove is located in the Great Smoky Mountains and one of the more heavily visited areas.

This old wagon is located in the settlement area of Cades Cove located in the Great Smoky Mountains. I was lucky enough to be hanging out with Lori Walton and her husband Don, just walking around, absorbing the moment, as people shuffled by. I shot this in sepia because I wanted to give the feel I felt as I was looking at it. Something about the aroma of the old wood along w/ the shed, as you inhale it, sends you back to a time when it was at it’s highest peak, working the fields, delivering goods and transporting the family. So shooting it in sepia was the only way I could really portray the feeling I get everytime I go to this area. I shot this in Sepia Mode set on my camera / Was in SS priority / SS at 1/125 / Fstop at F8 / ISO at 400 / Focal Length at 17mm / Exposure Comp at 0

i actually shot this last year. / just as the autumn flowers were blooming along sparks lane in cades cove, on a wonderful foggy morning. i thought it was so cool how this one flower was standing away from all the rest on the fence post. thought of the title immediately. had been debating about showing to the public or not for awhile (and i didnt want to overwhelm people with a bunch of uploads) / something about this wildflower being on it’s own symbolized something along the lines of my own life, do hope you enjoy / best if viewed larger Shot this in SS mode / SS of 1/100 / ISO of 400 / Focal Length of 140mm / F-stop at F/13 / Exposure Comp at 0

This waterfall is just off the road. There is a pulloff at this location but it is usually full. If you don’t see a crowd you might drive right by without noticeing the falls. At certain times of the year it doesn’t flow at all. It often becomes overgrown and the park service has to cut back the foliage. I have spent hours just sitting on the wall looking at this wonderful little fall. / CANON F-1,FUJICHROME 50,200MM TOKINA LENS

Shot this a few weeks ago in the cove. / Brutus and I were heading out and happened to see mama and her two cubs right along the road in the woods. One cub was trying to get the other to play as mama watched over them. / Was tough having to shoot between two trees and then have the debree in front of me, so it was manual focus to the rescue!! / They stuck around for alittle while until the tourons started stopping and gathering around, then mama moved them on out of the area. / If only people would realize they need to turn Off their cars, and BE QUIET!!! they could sit for a lot longer time to enjoy the true meaning of nature spending time around these beautiful creatures / Best if viewed larger Shot this in Shutterspeed mode / SS at 1/200 / ISO at 800 / F-stop at F 5.6 / Ev at +0.7 / Focal length at 300mm

Mama bear and her cubs had been run up a tree by a very aggressive male. I wish I had got a shot of him but was movin to quick for the low light in the woods. The bear seemed more abundant in the Cove this year. Bears are wild animals and should be treated with respect. The large male wasn’t too tolerable of anything, and could have attacked at any moment. You may see a dozen bears in the Cove that pay you no mind, but it just takes one like the aggressive male to kill you. The day I made this I had seen 11 different bear….Black Bear, ursus americanus… ….Shot was taken in Cades Cove area of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park

Great Smoky Mountains National Park has water falls in many places. When its hot, people head for the hills of the Smokies. / Cool breezes and water. Swimming, fishing, hiking, and driving trails near by. Shop till you drop in Gatlinburg, and walk your dog if he is well behaved. All kinds of things to do and see, good old Tennessee. Piegon Forge is nearby, I know you like to eat, well I couldn’t name them all. Make fun at the way people talk, come on down yeu all. Maybe you haven’t been here yet, watch out for those curvey roads. One of the most visited parks in the good old USA. GSMNP has a tremendous diversity of plant life. Many people document it or just enjoy it. Rhododendron in bloom around the falls, this gorgous shrub is easily seen because it grows well on exposed ridges at 3,000 to 6,000 feet elevation. They grow 8-12 ft. high.and one of the first I added to my garden, along with the natural ones in the woods. They bloom in June and July in the Park, and about a months difference here later. / Oil on canvas JeffeeArt4u
