How I Got This Shot: “Dirty Low Down”
Captured last night Aug 16th 2013 from the Blue Ridge Parkway. I made this shot laying on the ground to gain a very LOW DOWN perspective and I wanted to shoot through the brush that was not more then 18″ -24″ tall. Earlier in the day I heard the song Dirty Low Down, by Boz Scaggs, and it stuck with me all day so I could not resist naming this one Dirty Low Down! That is the fog rolling in on the upper left from Mt. Pisgah! And it was moving fast.

Shot with my Sigma 10-20 lens at 10mm, 1/80 sec at f/16, ISO 640. This is one image, processed 100% in LR5. Shooting wide is super for landscapes!
