The silhouette of a bare, dead tree against the last light of evening is the detail that anchors this view, with the mountain ridge running dark along the horizon beneath layered clouds. Scenes like this are a familiar part of the Blue Ridge Parkway, the scenic road that winds along the crest of the Appalachians through Virginia and North Carolina and was built during the 1930s as a motorists' route through the mountains. Dead trees standing on high ridges are a common sight in the region, often left to stand after storms, disease or fire, and their bare limbs make them favorite subjects for photographers chasing the color of sunset.
