Thank you. I used more foreground because I felt the ripples in the sand added more interest than the sky.

Great, imaginative composition, Andy. FWIW, I'd assumed your cypress pictures were from the Great Dismal...glad to see you were exploring Caddo Lake in my old neck of the woods.
Ha, we seemed to be following one another--I got my undergraduate degree at LSUS and am currently fetched up in Knoxville. At any rate, I suppose it was a pretty scruffy scene when I was there, pre-casino/post oil-bust, but exotic enough for someone (literally) just off the farm.
Ha, that's hilarious--though you'd have to go a ways to beat my Yankee wife, who I put through a classic "meet the parents" scenario on what was then a working cattle ranch up in Arkansas. (Ironically, every subsequent spin of the wheel here in academic Thunderdome has since kept us south of the Mason-Dixon.)
At any rate, let me know if you get the urge to explore the GSMNP--I've spent an unconscionable amount of time up there with a flyrod in my hand, so I might be able to point you in a direction.

Austin,
Really nice composition!
Thanks Hugo! The light was drab all day, but as I was hiking back to the car, the sky opened up for a few minutes.
