Date Taken: 06/05/2016
Location: Mabry Mill Pond, Milepost 176.2 on the northern end of the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia

Camera: iPhone

How I Got This Shot: I was lucky the pond was calm when I arrived. I just tried to get some foreground to give the image a bit depth, so I found this beautiful bush in full bloom. Coincidentally, this duck (I forgot her name but she seems to live there for ages) came swimming across the lake – that was the perfect moment for me to shoot. The spot is easy to find, it’s on the way to the mill. A beautiful moment of tranquility I’ll never forget in my life.
