Chimney Tops and Half Moon in Snow Great Smoky Mountains

This image is an example of my favorite winter weather in the mountains. It is the day after a snow storm. The sky is clear, the air is cool, and the sun is warm. Using the 25 red filter with black and white film I was able to darken the blue sky. The size of the moon was made visible with the aid of a telephoto lens. This is Chimney Tops in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It is very steep trail in the summer and a very slippery and dangerous trail after a winter snow.LynnFreeny.com
