Smoky Mountain Nature and a School House
I have visited a location in the Smokies several times that has challenged my photographic skills. It is a wonderful destination to experience some Smoky Mountain nature and history. It is the Little Greenbrier School located just west of the Metcalf Bottoms picnic area. I don’t believe that too many people visiting the park are aware of this remote location. You have to traverse an extremely narrow and rough road that is about a mile or so long. At the end of the road you will find an old cemetery and an old log school house. It is so very quaint and I believe picturesque. I have photographed the school house on two separate trips but I never felt that the images were worthy of prints. I haven’t given up yet though. One of these days I’ll capture that image that I have in mind.
