A chilly climb on the way to Clingman's Dome in the Great Smokie Mountains took me a little longer than I expected when I had to stop and take this photo. This bare tree stood tall and proud in the midst of fall colors of the surrounding mountain tops. NIk software plugin filters in photoshop brought out the detail in the sceen. A combination of the Nikon D3s and 24-70 f/2.8 lens captured this photo.
