"Deodara Dance"


The tentacle-like branches of this wonderful tree caught my eye while walking near my home.
I've always loved the structure of Deodara Cedars. This one seemed to invite me to dance in and out of the shadows created by the beautiful Fall light and palette.

"Fancy Gap Woods"


Here's a scene I discover while walking in the woods near Fancy Gap along the Blue Ridge Parkway. The light is warmly shining through the Fall foliage. The atmosphere is clear on this cool day as the leaves are showing their seasonal palette.
