Autumn on the Tellico

The Tellico River is located in eastern Tennessee near the town of Tellico Plains. I spent 2 days exploring the headwaters and taking in the beautiful scenery. This part of the river is in the Cherokee National Forest which is operated by the US Forest Service. I visited there during the government shut-down but the area was still open for use.

Loved it!
Really liked the slow shutterspeed on the waterfalls.

Thanks, I am glad that you liked it. What looks like a slow shutter speed is a motion blur filter in Edius which blends frames. I wish I had the patience and skill to do good timelapse.

Oh, well couldn't tell it wasn't done in camera.
Excellent work.

Beautiful job!

Thanks for sharing.

Very nice, like the leaf floating downstream and change to blur of waterfalls.

I saved watching this until the end of my day, and I was not disappointed! Very lovely, impressive work, a treatment so full of substance and gentle yet keen observance of the way nature flows.....and great music choice, too!

Thanks for all the nice comments.

I love all the shots, but that one at 45 seconds is awesome, it brings you right into the scene. I'm guessing that was a really wide lens. The one right after it is one of my favorites too.

Yes, it was fully wide and to get the shot I had to wear fishing waders while in the river since the water temp was about 42F.
