One of my favorite structures in Cades Cove is this cantilever barn. Fairly unique to our region, this style of barn construction has a very distinctive look to it - it's also a bit of a pain to shoot because it's tucked in the woods. For this scene I let a late rising moon help me out with the foreground lighting after gathering the sky data, and then illuminated parts of the scene with my lights.
The sky features prominently the Cygnus region of the Milky Way, as well as the vail complex of nebula, the great Lacerta nebula, the elephant trunk nebula, and the question mark nebula.
