Digital Photograph - On the Way Home



Thought I would share just one of the amazing landscape scenes I experienced yesterday. I think I photographed every barn and tree along the Blue Ridge Parkway I could find. Needless to say, it made for a long day and my hip began to scream at me. I have slept in today, I needed the rest. I am hoping to make it to Mom and Dad's before dark. It is dark and dreary and raining here. I am going to have to hit an antique store or two on the way home. Don't forget today is the last day to leave comments on my Journal post to win a journal.

    What an amazing capture, Elizabeth! At first glance, I actually thought it was a painted piece (al la Grandma Moses). Upon closer inspection, I realized that you've manipulated this shot beautifully! Will continue to pray for a safe trip. Hugs,Terri xoxox

    Gosh, this is beautiful. Looks like a painting. Isn't it funny when people say that about nature? But, again, I see another book jacket cover. Guess one of us better get busy writing the book, huh? :)Bea

    so pretty Elizabeth.

    your shots are beautiful and have an eerie quality to them.

    it is dreary as you approach DC today. I live about 2 hours away and a big old rain cloud is over the whole area.
