Beautiful colors of spring! We were on the Blue Ridge Parkway in western North Carolina on Friday and I noticed the rhododendron beginning to bloom. On Roan Mountain just northeast of Knoxville very close to the western Northern Carolina state border there’s a state park with the same name as the mountain that has a huge rhododendron garden that’s world-renowned. Scientist come to study the area because for the life of me I can’t remember why but it’s a gorgeous sight to see. We haven’t been there in years. It would be pAwesome to return to see the glorious blooms. If you’re interested, then you might want to check out http://www.roanmountain.com.
Gosh such mesmerising shots, Keith. Love each of them and they stand out unique different from the rest. You have quite a photographers eye and your angles are great.
Billions of apologies for not having commented on your #WW posts from the last few weeks. Was snowed with painting and woodwork at home. Bobbing back to life now.
Your posts are always a treat to the eyes and soul. Thank you. Have a fabulous weekend!
Love and Light!
Thanks for your generous words Natasha. My daughter is a professional photographer so I learn a lot from her work! You’ve clearly been up to your eyes in it, but I’m sure it was worth the effort!
Beautiful garden love all the flowers and colours looks so peaceful 🙂
Have a bloomingtastic week 🙂
