Black Mountain

The greening of the mountains from Tanbark Ridge overlook, elevation 3175 feet, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina. The road seen in upper left is the parkway as it continues northeast. Can you see the little houses, including my favorite, the red roofed one?

Mountains with snow

Oh, Happy April Fool's Day!
Snow from March 27 on peaks near Blue Ridge Parkway 

Notice the pine tree on the lower left corner...


Same pine is now on lower right, to get a better idea of the slopes that still have snow, and those closer to us which are just grey.  I love how you can see the earth's folds in this light.  They aren't always that visible.

  1. What a scenic part of the world to live. I love the shadows created by the valleys on the mountainside.

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
