I’m back from a wonderful week photographing in the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina. This is one my favorite regions of the country to visit and photograph, so I was thrilled to be back in the area. Usually when I’m in the area, I mainly photograph wildflowers. This trip was a little different, I spent my time photographing the landscape. I thought I’d share a few of my photos  from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Pisgah National Forest with you today.
