Looking toward the Smoky Mountains from the Foothills Parkway near Townsend, Tennessee. October 23, 2012.
(Note: All pictures may be enlarged by clicking on them once or twice.)
This is my post for Skywatch Friday, a meme for sharing views of the sky from all over the world. To see more, or to join and share your own photos of the sky, click HERE.
Some people come to East Tennessee to enjoy the glorious autumn colors. Other come to see our majestic mountains. When both are present under a beautiful Tennessee sky, there’s not a better place to be.
This picture was taken on the Foothills Parkway looking toward the Smoky Mountains in October of this year.

What a superb capture, George!! I love your composition with the mountains and the beautiful, peaceful skies! And such a wealth of autumn colors! This could be a painting to hang on the wall! Hope you and Betsy have a lovely weekend!

Wow George…that is beautiful. So crisp and clear. However, I could do without the snow falling across it. 🙂

You said it right! The combination of mountains + fall colors + and that beautiful blue sky with white clouds = perfection.
When I enlarged your photo, it took me a while to be able to continue… It’s so beautiful.

Thank You liking my newest post. I have no explanation to it why nobody could leave comment. It is a mystery to me.
I am still working by my Mobile broadband modem for my connection. I have been promised to get operational connection to our new home in December on Friday the 14th, 2012.Let’s hope that they keep their promise. Happily I made many posts ready for publication, because I expected something like this problem. My Internet connection is giving me more gray hair, gray although they are white grey already.
Great colors on Your beautiful photo.

I think you might be right. No better place to be.

This photo is just perfect. No place I’d rather be, especially in the fall of the year. Blessings to you and Betsy this day.
