Appalachian Trail Photo Contest

Postby Andy » Nov 17, 2011 10:06 pm

I apologize in advance for this shameless self-promotion ..... but if you are on Facebook I need your vote with a Facebook "like"!

A photo of mine made it as a finalist in the Appalachian Trail Conservancy's "Good Times on the AT" photo contest. Please view the photo and click "like".

This is a photo of a friend of mine jumping in the air on Hump Mountain in North Carolina and Tennessee. I took the photo last month while on a backpacking trip. I used a point and shoot camera (Olympyus 1030SW).

The winning photo will be printed in an upcoming edition of the Appalachian Trail Journeys magazine. The winner gets a new pair of hiking poles.

Thank you for your vote!

Feel free to critique the photo. Nobody is touching anything in this photo. Not even the ground! :-)

:laughing: I'll stay away from a critique for obvious reasons. GREAT shot though! :big grin: I've hiked right over that spot a few times. Those balds through there are pretty sweet!

Wow nice view. Just hiked parts of the Appalachian trail for the first time last week out here in Philadelphia. What an awesome ass kicker of a trail it is.
