| Dawn, Clingmans Dome, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, North Carolina © Doug Hickok All Rights Reserved (Velvia slide film) On a chill autumn morning, dawn suffuses the sky with warm hues. From atop Clingmans Dome, the highest point in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the still air was so cold my fingers could barely operate the camera. Yet, there was such an unmatched sense of peace and tranquility, a touch of heaven. |
