my lovely wife rented us a cabin in the mountains for a few days for my birthday. this is a view from the drive there along the blue ridge parkway. we had mostly sunny 50 degree weather while we were there, not bad for early january. more photos to come.

Love the tilt shift. Should be printed very large I think. Has sort of a hudson river school quality to it.
