    Oh Man, what a great shot! It makes me want to take a drive up the blue ridge parkway again. What a great road for vistas like that.

    That looks like just the place to be at the end of a nice day. Great picture. Thank you for sharing.
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    Beautiful photo. That reminds me a lot of a transition shot from Ken Burns' Civil War doc.

    There are a number of lodges along the Blue Ridge Parkway that have over night lodging and camping. It has been a number of years since my last drive along the Blue Ridge from what I remember the food was not bad but the views were fantastic.

    Reminds me of the time I lived in Luray. It's beautiful country there which your great photo has captured.
