Dogwoods in the Woods

I love seeing the dogwoods blossom (Cornus Florida) in the spring – particularly when the trees are blooming in the woods surrounded by other trees. I realized I had several sets of dogwood photos that I’ve never edited. So today I thought I’d share some of my favorite photos of dogwood blossoms in the woods of North Carolina and Tennessee.

I’ve recently added a new photo – Smoky Mountain Stream – to my BeautifulFlowerPictures.com website.

One of my favorite things to photograph in the Smoky Mountains in the spring is the water rushing down the hillsides. In the summer, some of the streams are mere trickles of water – in the spring they are overflowing with water roaring over the rocks on the hillsides. I photographed this stream last spring on the North Carolina side of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. I’d been out photographing when it started to rain. Fortunately it was just a drizzle so when I spotted the stream surrounded by the green trees with the water tumbling over the moss covered rocks I was able to stop and photograph it. Every time I return to favorite photo locations in the Smokies I always find something new to photograph there – I can’t wait to see how this stream looks next spring.

Smoky Mountain Stream is available as a matted print on my website.
