#WW: Spanish War Veteran Statue, Gov John Sevier, & the old Andrew Johnson Hotel
On Sunday, before venturing out to do our dreaded grocery shopping, we drove downtown.
Fences are always placed where I do not want them, so I just make the most of the opportunity. This is a tough picture to capture. I either over-expose or under-expose the image too much. The less offender of the two evils is under-exposed. At least, I like how my subject is in silhouette against a gorgeous blue sky.
Thank you for making me apart of your day. Please leave your comments footprints so that I know you came and I will hop over to your place soon. Have a fototastic day!

That is most definitely a great way to master a tough lighting situation – a silhouette.
Hahaha – funny, you caught my car in your last picture: Tuffie, our surf-mobile 😉

Hey, you should have stopped to say hello then! lol Yep, low lighting is tricky. But, silhouettes turn a bad situation into a good opportunity. 😀

Lovely photos! My fave is the first one. Silhouette photos are always nice and give a more dramatic feel =) #ww

That naughty sun messes photos up for me too, Cathy. LOL, at least it is a good excuse ☺(for me)
I love all the interesting features & buildings, thanks for the tour! And thank you for this weeks award! there is something wrong with your code grabber, so I linked back to your blog title above the explanation of the award. Glad you enjoyed my “purple bloomers” last week ☺

Love the first one! nice capture against the blue sky background. I love towns with so much history, I walked around ours on the weekend (its a very brief walk), and it’s amazing to see how much history there is.
Abrianna
Always interesting history on your blog. I too have lots of fences I have to shoot through or around. Like you I make the best of it.
Su-sieee! Mac
I like the way you composed your photo of the Spanish War Vet statue. It came out quite nice with the blue sky in the back.
