Waterfalls, Creeks, and Streams

My main goal was to capture some fall colors around water. I wish I was able to be there a week earlier but my schedule did not permit it. I was still able to grab some shots to my liking. Here are a few.

Landscapes

There are many great overlooks in this National Park. Some of the areas outside the park are just as great. There I was able to fly the drone and get some amazing shots.

Colors and Textures

It was past 'peak' in the smokies, but there were still pockets of vibrant colors and textures.
