This image ‘Pigeon Forge, TN, 2008’ is from the series Big Rock Candy Mountain (2007-current).

Tammy Mercure photographs “the tourist towns that accompany the natural beauty of The Great Smoky Mountains….The pure spectacle of the towns brimming with shopping, all-you-can-eat buffets, and pure entertainment, stop some visitors from even seeing the nature up close and unmediated.”

Mecure has a good eye, but I think there is definately more to come.  Good stuff.
