Water winds its way
Cascading throughout the day
Tumbling stones in play

Black Water, by The Doobie Brothers (1974) – see lyrics here.
Water Spirits
Sifting through time in forested mountains
As beauty of movement in water chases gravity
Echoes ring in a rush, over and around rocks
Raining rhythm on riverside deadheads
Rolling, splashing and drumming pockets of air
I’ve come to appreciate the sound of rivers that talk
Speaking in the tongue of ancients
Of Indians, pioneers, early settlers and nomads alike
Lives lived and long passed, here
Beneath the soil where once was home
Now, singing as spirits in the current of waves
Alone in the forest, listening to the flow of nature
I hear their voices and it sounds heavenly

Song for the Day
Ripple, by Grateful Dead (1970) – see lyrics here.
Heavy rains saturate the soil, draining downhill to bolster waterways. Strong winds topple trees, some of which may wash downstream. Change is constant and it’s always a good time to visit the forest following notable weather events.
Seen here, Middle Prong Little River is flowing fast the day after heavy rainfall. Located in the Tremont section of the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee, it’s one of my favorites places to hike, with a wide variety of diverse scenery to enjoy.
You can enjoy this landscape scenery on a print in your home, when you visit my galleries to select the perfect accent piece for an empty wall…
Following heavy rainfall, Middle Prong Little River was high on the banks and with fewer areas to safely stand while keeping dry. However, the broad spread of water is always a welcome sight!
This landscape photograph was captured in the Smoky Mountains and is available on prints for your home, office, or perhaps as a gift to give family and friends. Learn more when visiting my galleries at Pixels and ArtPal.

Hike when you can, and enjoy the great outdoors!
Middle Prong Little River was flowing fast after recent rainfall, weather of which (in part) motivated my road trip to the Smoky Mountains. While I knew that the river would be full, I’d also hoped to capture some landscape scenes with fog on the water.
Forecasts indicated dense fog alerts throughout eastern Tennessee, which were subsequently observed along the entirety of my cautious drive. That is, until I travelled beyond Townsend and into the Great National Smoky Mountains Park. Mysteriously, only scattered patches of fog were present?!
As a landscape photographer, I’ve learned to make due with such potentialities, and, in addition to the many wonderful waterfront scenes I found, I also planned to visit the Foothills Parkway afterward, for a view from above the clouds and fog…more on that later.
If you’d be interested in enjoying my photography at home or work, then please visit my galleries at Pixels and/or ArtPal to discover the perfect accent piece! Many prints are available.
Thanks very much!
In a race against morning sunlight, I made a final stop for one more long exposure photograph along a misted Middle Prong Little River. Taken with my ISO set at minimum and a 2-stop Polarizer attached, you can find this landscape scene on a variety of prints when you visit my gallery. Select from framed, art, canvas, metal, poster, wood, acrylic and tapestry. Thanks very much!
After visiting several scenic spots in the Tremont section of the Smoky Mountains, I drove along a winding waterway between high ridgelines as I watched the dial on my compass. With the morning sun continuing to rise, only a northerly direction would allow me one last opportunity for another long exposure water capture, and, here it is – Middle Prong Little River. You can see more in my galleries at Pixels and/or ArtPal. Thanks for visiting!
