It was very nice to meet you the other day out in Cades Cove, really enjoyed talking with you and all the tips you gave on finding some of the other bucks and best time to see the bears. Talking to you was one of the highlights of my trip. Cant wait to get back out there.

I love all the new photos you have added lately. Keep up the good work and maybe some day we can get together and shoot locally or at the cove with all our mutual cove friends

Rick, you are truly an artist with a camera! Awesome. I can't think of a better way to show off God's handy work than showing the beauty of it through the camera. Simply beautiful. I can't even imagine the hours you have to put in to achieve these photos. Great website. Mike Baker
