All these pictures were taken during a five day trip to Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia and North Carolina in October 2004

What a picture to illustrate the name of the park, with a Canon 1Ds and 400mm f/5.6, 1/640s @ f11, ISO 100. Cropped in Photoshop.

A sunrise shot taken with a Canon 1Ds and 200mm f/2.8, 1/25s @ f11, ISO 100.

About half an hour before sunrise. Taken with a Canon 1Ds and 400mm f/5.6, 1/2s @ f11, ISO 100.

Early morning shot and again this magical blue haze. Taken with a Canon 1Ds and 200 mm f/2.8, 1/20s @ f11, ISO 100.

20 minutes after sunrise the sun "set" again. Taken with a Canon 1Ds and 400mm f/5.6, 1/160s @ f10, ISO 100.

During sunrise, a bit off from the action, this is my preferred frame. Taken with a Canon 1Ds and 400 mm f/5.6, 1/25s @ f/11, ISO 200.
