Sunday, October 27: The WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge is Horizon: The space or line where the sky meets the earth. So many places where the sky meets the earth around the world, and millions of interactions between two elements. It can be water, a city skyline, a forest, a wasteland, a desert, a sunset outside your bedroom window. Is there a particular horizon which speaks to you?
Here are the horizons I saw today from the Skyline Drive on the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Shenandoah National Park. Some horizons are to the west of the ridge, and some are to the east, as the road wanders back and forth from one side of the mountain range to the other.
We were just talking about the Blue Ridge Parkway today. It must have been very beautiful out there today (and probably crowded as well?).
Yes, it was quite crowded, Annette, but because we stayed the night in Staunton and started early from the southern end, we didn’t have any problem. Coming from the north was a long line of traffic. It was really lovely though! 🙂
That was the smart thing to do – going against traffic!
Yes, I was so glad we did it that way! 🙂
beautiful! I love Skyline drive.
Me too! I has been years since I’ve been there. Another post will follow, soon I hope. 🙂
those rolling mountains are so beautiful, they beckon you in, just over the next ridge, softness and mystery all the way!
Thanks so much, Christine. I love the mountains, especially at this time of year. 🙂
Such pretty horizons, Cathy! Looks like your weekend weather was great 🙂
Thanks, Jo. I’ll have more pictures to come soon, I hope. The weather was fabulous, as always, for my birthday weekend. 🙂
Wish I could be there… thanx for these fantastic impressions!
Thanks so much, fotofreeze. I hope you’ll visit one day in late October. The leaves will probably be down by next weekend. 🙂
I have one word…spectacular.
Thanks so much, Carol! 🙂
Your second photo is dramatic and rather stunning!
Thanks so much, Terri! And thanks for visiting. 🙂
A wonderful and beautiful range of horizons, Cathy. Such a lovely area. 🙂
Thanks, Sylvia. I’m glad you liked the views. 🙂
The view from blue ridge mountain is breathtaking Cathy! Thank you for a fabulous gallery. 🙂
Thanks so much, Madhu. I love fall in Virginia. It’s coming to an end now though…. 🙂
The lovely, peaceful Blue Ridge Mountains – you portrayed them well!
Thanks so much, Lynn. 🙂
