“The Light” The light was captured in July, 2013. It was my hopes in capturing a beautiful sunset. The clouds started rolling in and it started to sprinkle and I began packing up my gear. Then, the sun rays broke through the clouds and was followed by a beautiful saturated sky.

“Cradle of Forestry” located just off the Blue Ridge Parkway is a favorite of mine during the fall colors. Draped in reds and yellows, it presents itself to others as a memory in time.
