Description
White monarda (bee balm) and red columbine providing a nice contrast to all the green on a warm July evening along the Blue Ridge Parkway.
This is one of my favorite photos. It was taken on Thunder Ridge on the north side of Apple Orchard Mountain looking out over the southern Shenandoah Valley. The sunsets from this area in the summer are breathtaking. Today this area has been overrun with wild raspberry and the parks service has chosen to mow and bush hog the area leaving none of the usual wildflowers.
