Description
Regular visitors and local residents simple call this "The Tree." If you have achieved the status of being a Cades Cove addict, like many of us photographers that can't stay away from this idyllic little valley that is part of the Great Smoky National Park, when someone mentions "The Tree," you know exactly where they're coming from. Magnificent in all seasons, this stately spreading oak is located directly across from the historic Dan Lawson Place along the Loop Road. On the day this image was taken, it was a late fall afternoon, and it looked as if a storm could be brewing in the distance as the sky began to darken across the mountains, but meanwhile golden hour was setting in nicely in the field, and everyone's favorite tree was showing off one more time for everyone who happened to pass by.
