Description
The tranquil waters of Sweetwater Creek flow through the lush landscape of its surrounding banks. The cascading water of the creek was captured using a long exposure with a neutral density filter, creating a silky effect among the rocks. The vibrant foliage of trees in full leaf frame the scene, revealing the beauty of spring.
Sweetwater Creek State Park is a peaceful tract of wilderness only minutes from downtown Atlanta. A wooded trail follows the stream to the ruins of the New Manchester Manufacturing Company, a textile mill burned during the Civil War. Beyond the mill, the trail climbs rocky bluffs to provide views of the beautiful rapids below. Additional trails wind through fields and forest, showcasing ferns, magnolias, wild azaleas and hardwoods. Park rangers lead informative hikes to these areas throughout the year.
