In the past four years my photo shoots have drastically dwindled. This is largely due to life happening more specifically medical crisis with DH’s retina detaching, surgeries, and countless follow-ups. The good news that’s behind us but still it’s been hard to get back into the groove, so I thought I’d go through my archives to find some missed jewels that didn’t speak to me then but do now.
This picture was one of my first after buying my big girl camera, Nikon D7000, at Clingmans Dome in the Smoky Mountains. The mood there is often dramatic and fast moving. Conditions can be quite different from the base of the mountain at the park entrance to the pinnacle. We weren’t quite there which is accessible a few feet away by taking half-mile paved and quite steep foot trail. We didn’t have time to hike it on this day, so I snapped a few pix from the parking lot, one of which included this one.
Last week, John shared a Wes Montgomery, an artist recently introduced to me by another good bloggy friend, song “Bumpin’ on Sunset” from Montgomery’s 1966 album, Tequila, which I really liked and I thought it would be a great idea to share it with you.
Incidentally, in case you missed it and would like to join the fun, I invite you to cast your vote in my latest Battle of the Band before the ballot box closes on Friday! Watch for more peeks through my treasure trove of photos in coming weeks. It’s not all bad plundering through old pictures. That wraps things up but hopefully I’ll find inspiration to join Thursday Art Date with Rain.
Thanks for joining me today and may you have a blessed day!
