I mentioned last week that my nephew and I had bummed around Cades Cove on Good Friday and I had a few more images I wanted to share. You may have noticed that I’m mentioning my macro lens more and more, and frankly it is my favorite lens right now. I’ve been really enjoying taking detail shots lately because it forces me to slow down and just look at things to find either interesting points of view or possibly to point out things that a casual observer may have missed; this week’s picture I hope does the latter.
I have stated several times before how fascinated I am by the craftsmanship of our ancestors; a lot of which is on display in Cades Cove. As I was standing there checking out this cart, which is beside a barn near the Cable mill, I was really interested in how the hub of this wheel was put together. Neat stuff!
