Morning Majestic

[smoke665]

Headed out this morning with high hopes for a good day, then it went downhill. Thirty mins down the road, and I discovered I'd left my wallet (drivers license) at home. At the first setup for a pano I discovered my tripod was still at home. So only thing left was to try a hand held. Then I had a run in with a park maintenance man who was trying to exceed his pay grade. Finally gave up and came back shortly after, will try again tomorrow.

Other things aside, judging by that image, it was totally worth it!

I think you should have used a bigger fill light. Nice shot Smoke, it came out great, especially for having one of those mornings.

I love the Smokies. I have to get back there soon.

@Jeff G The sun and clouds were cooperating, nothing else was. LOL

@Dean_Gretsch We do to, just not in the summer usually. Less then 4 hrs away so we get up here often.

Nice pic! I ran into one of those "pay grade" people the other day myself that came at me with tough guy attitude but he left with that tail tucked look, lol!

@K9Kirk 10 years ago I probably would have shown him the error of his ways, but I've mellowed a lot. LOL
