Photographs and commentary by Dick Snoke
I did not get out nearly as much as I wanted due to the weather, the epidemic and general laziness. Still, I did get a few good shots. The first are from a foggy morning at sunrise in West Bank Park with a couple…
I did not do a great deal of photography this month due to both the epidemic and the weather. It has been relatively cold, there has not been a whole lot of color in the sky nor the trees, and I just wasn’t motivated….
November was an awkward month for photography. I did not have many opportunities to shoot, and I was using my older camera while the newer one was being repaired. I did get the D7500 back for the horseshow, and now all is well. I…

These galleries are in the reverse order of shooting, newest first. The first gallery is from a hike on the Smith Creek Trail from Ana-Ruby Falls to the campground at Unicoi State Park. This trail seems to have many mushrooms and other fungi every…
An outing with the Sonny Day Hikers that turned into a fungus frolic. We found numerous mushrooms and other fungi growing all over the place. With the hot humid weather we’ve been having, I guess that should not be a surprise.
