Speechless Sunday - Dueling Banjos and the Smoky Mountains

   You sure look perty!  This totally reminds me of dueling banjos.  Now we just need the guy on the back porch playing the banjo with the dude on the guitar.  Where's Burt Reynolds when you need him?  Anyway, I love a black and white with a great photo with a rustic look.  Just so awesome.  Feels almost "civil war" like wouldn't you say?

Kat...isn't it?

Shirley...you rock.  I feel like a million bucks.  they told me to take it easy for a bit.  I'm as type A as they come.  I will listen this time though.  I've lost 10 weeks and want to seize the whole summer...so THIS TIME, I'll listen.

Chis, you don't, do you.

Darren...that's what makes it so cool...kinda sucks you in, you know?

Dinah....no just B&W

Larry, great black and white shot of the cabin. There is a lot of history in the Smokey Mountains.

What a wonderful picture it is very powerful in black and white! I love it even though it does have a spooky feel to it.

Larry,

I love the power of this shot and the "color." I am featuring it on "Speechless Sundays" and reblogging it. Great job. :)

Larry, great shot - I like the perspective, the trees look so giant next to the itsy bitsy house.  I always love black and white and sepia.  You may have inspired me, I am going to look for something to add to one of the wordless, speechless, etc sites.  Do I have to wait for the actual day???

Mike...at that there is.

Jackie....very eerily cool!

Steve...dude...thanks...I've had so many great comments I think I'm going to throw up another B&W.  Thanks again Steve....really appreciate it.

Joanne....you had me at "black and white and sepia."  You get a pass on the waiting.

I can see it now.  I would like to be there, not if you are refferencing a certain movie though.  I would not want to be there in that case, but other than that, I looks like a great get away.  I wish you the best.
