Greenbrier Springtime © William Britten - use with permission only
Greenbrier Spring was taken just downstream from the bridge leading up the Ramsay Prong Road in the Greenbrier section of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The creek entering from the right is the Middle Prong of the Little Pigeon River, and straight ahead is the Ramsay Prong entering. A beautiful spring day after the dogwood blooms have faded, and the creeks are singing following a lot of rain.
The final image above is the result of merging three panels, each with the camera in the vertical position. And in fact each of the three panels was composed of three separate exposures needed to capture the extreme highlights in the water, as well as the deep shadows in the woods. So, a total of 9 exposures were merged together to create this one stunning photograph.
Greenbrier Spring has great detail and is especially suited to large sizes. It is offered in all sizes up to 20×30. Details of sizes and pricing can be found on at the bottom of the Gatlinburg Gallery page.
The image below is from the same vantage point during a late winter snow.
