Your Bio

Nature Photography in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is what you'll see most of here. Images include cascading/flowing water, scenic vistas, 4 seasons including fall colors, nature trail pictures, old homestead images and other photographic areas such as wildflowers.

Fawn Feeding Series : What first just appeared like 2 doe's grazing, suddenly was exposed as a Mother and Fawn. Perhaps a male fawn due to it's size and stature. As you can see by one photo, the fawn is almost as big as the Mother. There are more to this series, an entire large series of the actual feeding, showing many thrusting motions back and forth and a few more shots. But keeping the series brief seemed appropriate, since in less than 38 seconds, it was over! It seriously was one minute they were both grazing, and then the fawn bolted to the Mom in a trot. It was all very natural and quick. The fawn is quite aggressive getting milk as you can see by how the Mom's belly is pushed up hard in one photo below. Sorry about the varying crops and sizes, perhaps I can clean this up soon.

Photoil Gallery : A new design area for me, combining photographic elements with oil painted elements. All based on an original photo, then converted to part oil painting look and part photo. Note, you have to view fairly large to see oil elements really. While I still perfect the craft, some may appear more easily than others.

Fall Colors : Fall in the Smokies, a special time. I hope you enjoy the show. it's a small crop of special shots this year, but next year, we hope for even more to show you. But Fall colors do not stop in this gallery, some golden effects trickled into other galleries here as well, such as waterfalls, so see them all before you decide which you like best.

Breaking Water : When water is falling a few feet, or is spread out and low, I usually refer to it as breaking water. But some breaking water can be just as beautiful as falls, please take a look and decide for yourself. Sure, sometimes, it's a fine line how to classify shots and no, we really don't "need to" classify them. But we typically say the water needs to fall somewhat continuously for a few feet for falls.
