I think most photographers love to get photos of roads. A nice winding road through good scenery is hard to beat. This shot was captured in the Droughton Park part of the parkway. Don’t forget to wait for the traffic to clear and it doesn’t hurt to have a look […]

Sights on the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina
The Blue Ridge Parkway through North Carolina is a beautiful place and there are a lot of great vistas and pullovers worth stopping at. My favorite waterfall from our trip[ last year was Crabtree Falls. It is only about a mile and a half hike I think. We weree there […]
Highlights of the Blue Ridge Parkway
It was time for a break from all the Disney photos so back to last fall and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Two of the most iconic places on the parkway are the Lynn Cove Viaduct in North Carolina and Mabry Mill in Virginia. These are big favorites for photographers and […]
Blue Ridge Parkway Sights
The two shots tonight are both taken from the Blue Ridge Parkway. The first shot required a 1/2 mile hike to the viewpoint on the Tanawaha Trail to the overlook that looks towards the Lynn Cove Viaduct. I used the telephoto lens to zoom in on the viaduct as it […]
Fall on the rocks and Grandfather Mountain Black Bear
A few more of my favorites from the Blue Ridge Parkway and its surrounding area. The shot of the Black bear was taken at Grandfather Mountain. If you have not been there the two major attractions are the “Mile high swinging bridge” and the small zoo. This bear was photographed […]
Blue Ridge Parkway – Lynn Cove Viaduct and Price Lake
After shooting the sunrise and waiting for the right light to fall on the Lynn Cove Viaduct from the classic location I headed back up the Blue Ridge Parkway to the Tanawaha Trail. I read that this was a can’t miss trail and the beginning of it had some great […]
Crabtree Falls and Graveyard Falls
During our trip along the Blue Ridge Parkway we tried to hit several of the waterfalls. At Graveyard Falls it was a decent hike along a muddy trail to this section of the falls, but it was well worth it. We actually almost missed this part because it was hidden […]
Price Lake Sunrise
A quick post tonight. Two shots from Price Lake along the Blue Ridge Parkway. I shot this on my way back to our cabin near Boone from the Linn Cove Viaduct. There were some nice colors and a nice little mist hanging over the lake. [facebook]
Blue Ridge Parkway – Mabry Mill and Tunnel
A couple more of my favorite places from our trip on the Blue Ridge Parkway. We made it from teh southern end to a little ways past Mabry Mill up in Virginia. Mabry Mill of course is classic and is almost definitely the most photographed spot on the parkway. We […]

Sorry for the recent lack of posts. My wife and I went on a second honeymoon (10 year anniversary trip) without the kids for a week up to Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway. I have been busily processing my photos and getting a trip book […]
