As you know, I have pulled photos from my archives. All month, I have shared with you one foggy day on the Blue Ridge Parkway. In last week’s post, here, the image is near Devil’s Courthouse.
That got me to thinking, do I have any foggy pictures of Devil’s Courthouse? After searching through all of my old digital photos I came up empty-handed. Well….I’m not totally without.
captured with my small point n’ shoot Canon DS8800 camera
There is a relatively easy trail to hike the short distance to the top of the cliffs at Devil’s Courthouse. We did this once when the children were young and I survived. Often times, when we’re in the area we can see rock climbers on the side of the mountain from where I took this photo. Rock climbing isn’t permitted, but people do it anyway.
In trying to keep with my series of dramatic foggy shots, I applied the gray-scale effect to my photo.
I got to thinking, I knew I had a more recent picture of Devil’s Courthouse and I was right. In fact, I used my big girl camera shortly after I bought her in 2012. Here it is…
I made recent image tweaks downsizing large pictures and changing copyright info but when I originally wrote this post I took the above image to use with two free photo-editing apps which I no longer have and I deleted the modified images.

wwooowww… they are all amazing photos..
Hello from Indonesia
What a wonderful picture indeed! It makes my heart long for Spring so much more! Thanks for sharing my friend. HUGS
Beautiful sky! Clouds like those make me wish I were a Care Bear and live in puffy palaces up there.. ;D
Those are breathtakingly beautiful! It is amazing what a person can do with a photo, now. Problem is, though, you never know, anymore, if a photo you see in passing is really as life is, or has been altered. Great for nature pics, but used far too much in the modeling world on people’s body images.
I really like the foggy images. What a beautiful spot. If you were allowed to climb or hike, I would definitely be hauling my camera up there.
I use Picasa so that I can edit or add filters, and then it automatically adds my watermark when I upload it to my Picasa Web Album. But eventually I would like an actual photography website and I will use my Canon software more then.
Rock climbers are always looking for the next scream!
Very interesting photo series!
