Description
For those who frequent Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this spot is just known as "The Tree." Beautiful in every season, it has become a favorite meeting place, the site of weddings, a great place to propose marriage, and is certainly one of the most photographed scenes in the Cove. I have many photographs of "The Tree" in all seasons and from all angles, but it recently dawned on me that I had never converted any of those to black and white. As I played around with options, I loved this version, with its wonderful contrasts. The dark black areas under the provides a base for the graceful branches just above to light up and show off. The light fence posts add another nice element to the composition as well.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
