Foggy Tree - Mount Pisgah Inn, Mount Pisgah, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina

We arrived at the Pisgah Inn (on the Blue Ridge Parkway) on Mount Pisgah under the cover of dense fog and rain. I was disappointed because I wanted to get some pictures of the surrounding area. So, I had to work with the weather because I wasn't planning on leaving empty handed. There were a couple of framed prints of foggy, black and white landscapes that inspired me. With that idea in mind, I looked out the window and noticed a tree and decided that it would make a decent subject. My dad asked me what I was photographing. When I told him, "A tree," he promptly laughed... really loud. The next morning, the weather was much better and I was able to capture the sunrise and a panorama of the area around and behind this tree. It turned out to be a cool before and after for me.
