Landscape Photographs
This page of landscape photographs are primarily from the Lost River Valley, Hardy County, WV. Due to it’s semi-mountainous nature it remains undeveloped compared to other counties in the Potomac Highlands. While becoming popular as a weekend destination from Washington, DC, it maintains it’s “down home” qualities.

The National Arboretum in Washington, DC is a hidden gem, a wonderfully quite place to get into nature without leaving the city. I had passed over this bridge several times that morning. Finally the sun hit it and the scene glowed in fall colors.

Parker Hollow Road twists through a valley between the foothills. This particular spot has been a favorite of mine for many years.
