Bobcat in Winter

Bobcat in Winter, Cades Cove, Great Smoky Mountains.

The story behind the image:

Winter in the mountains provides an opportunity to enjoy the outdoors at a slower pace. It also can present opportunities to photograph more illusive wildlife. I photographed this bobcat in Cades Cove on a quiet winter morning when a dusting of snow highlighted the beauty of the surroundings.

The goal of my photography is to capture a moment in time, and to share with the viewer the beauty that I observed. My images are single images. I use a program called Lightroom to process my RAW image to prepare them for printing. The image is then printed in the USA on metal or archival quality professional photo paper which is mounted and coated for durability. All images are copyright protected and reproduction in any format is strictly prohibited.
