The Golden Moment

When I think of a place that I would like to be for photography I am usually thinking of being there early in the morning. Morning can be "The best of times and the worst of times." You may have cloud cover so heavy that you can not even see the sun let alone have warm light. But when all the weather elements are just right, it is by far the best lighting you can work with as a photographer. When most people are still in bed I am already setup for that first light of the day.
This image was shot on Cades Cove Loop Road in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This was a somewhat foggy morning which in most cases is a welcome weather element. Fog actually reflects the warm light. LynnFreeny.com
