Last weekend I made the short trip up to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. At the time I went, most of the trees were still bare. Also, the days that I was there were nothing but clear skies. Therefore, I decided to load up some 4x5 black and white film and concentrate on waterfalls and cascades. I drove to the park well before sunrise so that I could avoid both the crowds and direct sunlight. One of my biggest reasons for avoiding the Smokies up to this point (even though it's essentially in my back yard) has been the large amount of people. However, I have discovered that if you arrive before the sunrise, you can still have the entire place to yourself; it was very peaceful and I look forward to exploring the great park more!
The first image below was taken somewhere along the Middle Prong. Cascades like these are literally everywhere you look in the Smokies and the trick is bringing some order to the chaos. For this image I tried to anchor it with the water sweeping into the lower left corner and the rock on the lower right.
Images 2 and 3 were taken at Spruce Flats Falls. This hike is not listed on the trail map, but it is definitely worthwhile. Beginning just behind Tremont Institute, a short, easy hike leads to a beautiful set of falls. I had the entire place to myself for almost two hours. As I was packing up to leave, I probably passed 50 people on the trail! Timing is everything. Also, I can report that your feet will go numb in under a minute while standing in the water.
All images were self-developed in Ilfosol-3 and scanned with an Epson V700. C&C welcome and appreciated.
