The West Prong of the Little Pigeon River is composed of a series of cascades flowing down from the ridges of the Appalachian Mountains running through Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

All along the Newfound Gap Road you can find pull outs to stop and explore the river and take in the serenity that does not exist in Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg.

Home to some of the nation's most beautiful old-growth forests, the Great Smoky Mountain National Park is not without some controversy, as mountain homesteaders, loggers, and miners were evicted from their lands to create the park. However, during the Great Depression, the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), Works Progress Administration (WPA), and other public entities employed people to make trails, build and improve infrastructure and make the National Park accessible to more people.

My goal has always been to capture moments that inspire me so that I can share them with others. I have been fortunate to have several selections of my work recognized in print and in competition. I am predominantly drawn to images of beautiful landscapes, glorious sunrises and sunsets, impressive cities, impressive architecture and feats of engineering, and awe-inspiring nature. I try to remain faithful to the moments I have experienced, with only 'natural' enhancements in post-processing, though you will also find monochromatic images here. I hope that the moments I share here speak to you. I am open to suggestions, ideas, and feedback you might have about future content offerings. Dan
