I know that I told several folks that I am planning on a springtime trip to the Smoky Mountains so we can photograph the Dogwood blossoms and all the springtime spectacle that Mother Nature delivers in this incredible park.

Unfortunately this won't happen in 2010.  While I was putting together all the logistic I learned that the National Park Service is planning on some major constructions projects in the park.  I confirmed with them that the Cades Cove loop road and the Roaring Fork loop road will be closed during the springtime for repaving. 

These are two of the major sites for our field photography so I felt it best to wait until 2011 for this workshop.
