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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
