Spectacular view along the AT/Blue Ridge Parkway. Imaged in June 2004 on the day my son and I exited the AT. If you have a few minutes, please read the story of the events that led up to the capture of this image.

This is a panoramic crop of another image that I have here on SP. I'd be interested in knowing which you prefer. Personally, I prefer the other, but I have printed it poster-size and subtle shading in the foreground mountains and subtle color variation in the sky comes through nicely. A computer monitor doesn't do it justice.
