The picture shows the right sided view from Beacon Heights, Blue Ridge Parkway in late autumn. Some yellows and pops of dark orange mix with gray brown bare tree limbs and dark green evergreens. The left side of the picture shows Grandmother mountain with a cell tower on top. The center picture is a long range view of distant light blue rows of mountains. Right side is a nearly bare small tree with scarce yellow leaves.

The picture shows a medium blue sky in half of the picture with an autumn afternoon sun in the upper right corner. The lower half of the picture shows a gravel path slowly curving through a tall grassland d with red leaved low blueberry bushes. A dark shadowed wedge in the right side of the picture is the edge of Roan Mountain TN. Evergreen trees in the distance partially block a horizontal row of light blue mountains in the distance. The overall impression of the photograph is of sunny cold open space and fresh air with the broad expanse of the sky the most important element.

A medium blue sky contrasts with the red, yellow, oranges and greens of autumn leaves. Mounds of color roll into the distance. Dark Geen evergreens extend above the other trees to the far right of the picture and lower left. The colorful mountains fade in the distance to light blue, with the sharp contours of Table Rock and Hawksbill can be seen to the right side of the photo. The effect of the photo is a perfect sunny day in the NC mountains in Autumn.

A long range view from Beacon heights on the blue ridge parkway shows yellow, orange and green trees rolling into the distance with deep shadows late in the day. The sky is blue green and light orange fading into the mountains. The contour of the mountains is breathtaking in the lighting. Several dark green spruce pine trees closer to the viewer provide contrast along with a row of trees with orange and green leaves. To the left side of the picture beige tall grasses and reddish leaves of low blueberry bushes add depth. Near lower right a dark green leaved bush anchors the corner and a spindly sapling with red leaves curving like feathers add whimsy to the photo.

The picture shows rolling bluish brown mountains in the mid distance and blue mountains in the far distance. Tree branches extend from the upper right corner across the top of the picture. A lake can be seen in the middle lower portion of the picture.The sky is a lovely light blue.
The picture shows a rolling grassy meadow on the Roan Highlands, Tennessee. The picture shows a blue sky with thin clouds and a bright sun. In the lower half of the picture, the red orange leaves of blueberry bushes are barely holding on. A dark blue wedge of Roan Mountain is on the right of the picture. On the left mid distance is a clump of brown bare leaved bushes. Between those two elements is a long range view of light blue mountains..
The viewer looks off and edge at Hawksbill across to the shark fin shaped peak of Table Rock and to the right the Linville River gorge. The gorge has a layer of exposed rock before obtaining a steep angle towards the river. Distant mountains are light blue in the far distance and there is light filtering through thick cloud cover. Evergreen trees in the foreground are mixed with deciduous trees in reds and yellows at lower elevations.

Looking at Table Rock and the Linville Gorge from Hawksbill

Distant blue rows of mountains and blue sky cover the upper 1/3 of the picture. The lower 1/3 of the picture includes rough worn rocks, which are splitting into layers. In the near distance are trees in autumn with greens, reds, oranges, and yellows. The sun highlights a broad area in the near distance, making these colors more prominent. In the distance can be seen a steep mountain dropping off into the Linville Gorge. Rough gray rock at the drop off can be seen through the trees. The Linville River can be seen curving at the bottom of the picture in the Gorge.

The Roan Highlands on an overcast autumn day. The picture shows the foreground curve of Round Bald covered in natural long shaggy grasses. A near left small native blueberry bush retains its red leaves a bit longer. Beyond the grasslands the mountains roll like ocean waves into the blue distance. Closer mountains show hints of red, orange and yellow but are mainly the brownish color of turning leaves. The sun, low in the horizon (not seen) throws the mountains into a clearer picture of their dimensions and grooves like finger imprints on the mounded mountains.

For when you need to inhale deeply try the Roan Highlands, TN

The picture shows an extended long range view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The foreground consists of the remaining red leaves of blueberry bushes in front of the thick tan grass of the Roan Highlands. The consistent layer of cloud cover diffuses the light of the sun, causing a bright effect of the clouds.

The left upper side of the picture shows a long range view from the mountains, with colors of light green, and yellow, beginning to show on mountains in lower elevation. The horizon line has rows of bluer mountains in the far distance. A blue sky has sparse scattered very white clouds. Heavy shadows can be seen thrown by clouds. The right upper corner of the picture shows a deciduous tree whose leaves are starting to turn yellow and orange. Lower saplings are already yellow orange. The lower right corner shows a bush, whose leaves have turned a startling, cranberry red. The bush curves from the lower left toward the right middle section of the picture. The left lower corner of the picture includes light gray rock with deeper and darker crevices and indentations, providing additional texture to the photo. Between the gray rock and the long range view, Three Spruce pine trees extend upward with their triangular shape. Lower deciduous saplings provide color contrast with yellow leaves.
Leaves are starting to turn at the higher elevations.

The lower half of the picture is gray rock. The rock consists of fractured layers on the right side of the picture the layers angle upward in the middle of the picture. There’s a relatively flat outcropping and near left the rock layers almost seem to be sticking upward. The upper part of the picture is very blue with white clouds. Finley obscuring the sun and throwing deep dark shadow the rhododendron bushes in the last corner of the picture have leaves that are surprisingly rolled thin, even though the temperatures in the 60s. The bushes on the left are very windswept beyond the gray rock. You can see in the distance, the very gentle rise to the top of grandfather Mountain midway on the mountain the curve of the Linn Cove viaduct can be seen between dark green trees. Beyond grandfather Mountain can be seen to the left the unique peaks of the Jonas Ridge / Linville Gorge area, such as Hawks Bill and Table Rock. The center left of the picture shows in the distance, grandmother Mountain with its cell phone tower, and to the right of Grandmother, more mountains, extending in very light colored, rows of blue into the distance.

Long range view of Tennessee mountain range in the distance. The blue mountain range is slightly higher than one third the height of the picture. Near are deep shadowed green trees. The long range view has 4 rows of mountains the width of the picture. Near mountains are darker blue than far mountains. The blue sky is mainly obscured by white wispy clouds. The sun forms a white circle in the left upper corner of the picture. On the left side of the picture a deeply shadowed tree with evergreen leaves only in the top 1/4 of the tree curves left. Branches broken by wind extend occasionally from the trunk. The effect is of a deeply shadowed bonsai tree (although the tree is normal sized). It adds an elegant dimension to the picture.
