Drone Shot: Winding Forest Road in Gatlinburg, Summer

An aerial drone shot over a lush summer forest in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, revealing a long, winding two-lane road that snakes through a dense canopy of pine and deciduous trees. The road carves through emerald greens, with dappled sunlight filtering through leaves and casting rippling shadows on the asphalt. In the distance, the rugged silhouettes of the Great Smoky Mountains rise under a clear blue summer sky with a few fluffy clouds. Cinematic, hyper-detailed, photoreal lighting, 8K resolution, vibrant colors, and a sense of depth—foreground foliage in sharp focus, road and mid-ground crisp, distant mountains softly hazy. A serene, awe-inspiring summer scene perfect for an outdoor northern Tennessee landscape shot.
