Best Tuesday Ever! (New River Gorge National Park & Preserve)

            At the end of the trail and overlook along the Long Point Trail with a view looking to the north-northwest down the river gorge and valley with the New River. I included some of the foreground in the capture the image to add a layered approach, from near to far, with the rocky outcrop, to trees caught in the morning sunlight, to the New River Gorge Bridge, and finally to more distant mountains. I later worked with control points in DxO PhotoLab 4 and then made some adjustments to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.
