A Day at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden...

The Cincinnati Zoo is famous for it's gorillas, lions, and polar bears. But, it is also a botanical garden.

In the spring the blooms are vivid and fragrant.

Here are a couple pics from this morning...

I left home Thursday morning at 6am to get ahead of the bad weather. Got to Pigeon Forge at noon for a class on Wildflowers (good info) at the Wilderness Week program. Then headed out to get across the mountain to Cherokee. When I stopped at the Sugarlands Visitor Center it was starting to rain. I knew the "white death" was catching up with me!

I don't think I've ever managed to just drive straight through and Thursday was no exception...I had to stop along the way. It never fails to surprise me that I discover great new places to shoot in the worst weather.

Knowing that I was being chased by inclement doom I had to shoot quickly...composing on the run.

Here are a few of the shots that I got...



















After stopping at Newfound Gap, I realized that I really needed to get moving...the road was kinda dicey by that time. When I got down past Smokemont the north bound side had been shut down...I think I was the last one down :))]]>HAPPY NEW YEAR….2012BLOG2012-01-08T19:02:46-05:00http://imagesbyyvonne.com/blog/files/e897dc61e56eabcbab3098865af9c962-3.html#unique-entry-id-3http://imagesbyyvonne.com/blog/files/e897dc61e56eabcbab3098865af9c962-3.html#unique-entry-id-3

Then...on to Tellico Plains, TN. So small that it doesn't even have a Waffle House! But it does have the Grainery Bakery which is worth the trip!! Delicious bake goods...if you're there on a Saturday you need to stop by in the afternoon for the Wood Stone Baked pizzas. The BEST!!!

Here are a couple pics from Buck Bald (sunrise/sunset) and Citico Creek.





















Enjoy!!]]>IT'S BEEN AWHILE….AGAINBLOG2011-11-28T00:33:57-05:00http://imagesbyyvonne.com/blog/files/b6a2f99549f41278ef369438c651c11d-1.html#unique-entry-id-1http://imagesbyyvonne.com/blog/files/b6a2f99549f41278ef369438c651c11d-1.html#unique-entry-id-1
Got back last Friday from a whirlwind trip to the Smokeys, southwest Tennesse area and then Callaway Gardens.

Our first Photography Field Trip Workshop was a huge success. Wonderful weather, great group of people, and just great experiences all added up to everyone walking away feeling that they had gotten a lot out of the workshop....including Jim and I!

Here is a sampling of some of the images that the participants walked away with....These are not OUR photos but ones taken by our students!!!






































































The Photography Fieldtrip Workshops are something that Jim and I are really excited about. This next year will bring more planned workshops to new locations. Check back for updates!!!]]>SMOKEY MOUNTAIN FALL COLORBLOG2011-10-26T00:31:49-04:00http://imagesbyyvonne.com/blog/files/6a9ed885ae9890aa0941b8545fcda4c1-0.html#unique-entry-id-0http://imagesbyyvonne.com/blog/files/6a9ed885ae9890aa0941b8545fcda4c1-0.html#unique-entry-id-0
