Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina
The butterflies were out in great numbers along the Parkway on 9/27. The day was sunny and warm with little breeze and I saw a number of Gulf fritillaries, Buckeyes, Swallowtails, Painted Ladies, and lots of Monarchs.
One of the craziest and yet surreal experiences of my life was taking this tour onto a massive glacier on the Icefields Parkway in Canada. The colors, textures, and surroundings were off the charts. You can't imagine how slippery it is to even take one step.
A b/w rendition of an earlier color shot of a typical view when driving Alberta's spectacular Icefields Parkway. Most beautiful drive I've been blessed to enjoy numerous times.
Here I'm driving north towards Dolomite and Watermelon peaks.
As always, your visits, comments, faves and suggestions are appreciated!
The Marine Parkway–Gil Hodges Memorial Bridge is a vertical-lift bridge in New York City, New York, that crosses Rockaway Inlet. The bridge, which opened on July 3, 1937, connects the Rockaway Peninsula in Queens, with Flatbush Avenue to Floyd Bennett Field, Belt Parkway, and the Marine Park neighborhood in Brooklyn. The center span is 540 feet (160 m) long and is normally 55 feet (17 m) above the water but can be lifted to a height of 150 feet (46 m) above water level. With its distinctive twin towers (which house the vertical-lift machinery), the bridge has become an iconic landmark and symbol of the Rockaways.

Took this LE shot on a overpass on 395 in Northern Virginia. From there I managed to get this shot GW Parkway. The lighting was spotty due to the fact that some of the lamp post did not turn on. I was trying to capture the sunsetting in the background and a vast array of light trails.
and a lot of courage — to move in the opposite direction :-)

Awestruck. Driving home from Georgia to Minnesota on a stretch of the Blueridge Parkway in North Carolina, we were graced by scenes like this. The dilemma is, does one take pictures or sit in amazement? Did a little of both.
These conditions lasted about 45 minutes.

Took this on Roosevelt Bridge overlooking Rock Creek Parkway. The Kennedy Center is on the right. All the way in the background is Georgetown and the Potomac River. Managed to get the light trails from the traffic on Rock Creek Parkway.
The Icefields Parkway (aka Highway 93) is 230 km long one of most spectacular drives in the world. It connects Banff National Park and Jasper National Park.

There are so many reasons to visit and explore the BRP and I am going to attempt to show some of them in the next few weeks. I hope you enjoy them.
Today's post is of my favorite place to photograph in Virginia...Sharp Top and Abbott Lake, Peaks of Otter, BRP...summer 2020
The Athabasca Glacier (300 metres deep underfoot) on the Icefields Parkway, BC, Canada - Each of those massive Vehicles cost $1.5m and look at those tyre tracks! Also note the miniature (?) glaciers in the top area of the image.
Look close to see second tiny meteor next to big meteor (right lower side of big meteor). Perseid Meteors in the Moonlight over the Blue Ridge Parkway (LOVE)

Six KCS EMDs drag M262 across the Blue Parkway concrete arch bridge on Kansas City's east side, built in 1928 as part of a major realignment of the KCS mainline in the 1920s and one of four major trestles on the mainline coming out of Knoche. EMD supremacy is on full display here, a nod to the era between the early 1960s and mid-1990s when KCS remained a strictly-EMD railroad.
