Scenes from various places of virginia and the Blueridge Mountains

The Swing: Objects fade in the thick mist. trees take on an ethreal or eerie quality. The dark foreground contrasts greatly to the blank distance.

Overgrown: Harvest time has long past but the old hay rake still sits quietly in the corner of the feild while reeds tangle in its rusting spiels. 

Reflective: A hot cup of coffee close in hand, the distant mountains reflect the beauty of the blueridge mountains.

Fleeting: Butterflys flutter all around. sipping at the blooming milkweed, catching the last warm rays of summer.

Gilded: Delicate dewdrops crown the petals of a thistle flower and line the sliken threads of spider webs.

Fortitude : A fern finds root in the crack of two boulders while a river rushes relentlessly.

Hearth: A fire crackles warmly in its hearth, dried firewood close at hand to feed its greedy flames.

Mountains: The loss of foliage expsoes the barebacked mountains. The sunset colors rich shades of the horizon.
