Seeing the Sights Along the Blue Ridge Parkway

            While along the Blue Ridge Parkway and roadside pullout with a view looking to the west-southwest. This is at the Rock Point Overlook with a distant view of the ridges and peaks of Kelley Mountain and Torry Mountain. In composing this image, I angled my Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera slightly downward to take advantage of the higher ground I was located on and bring about more of a sweeping view, looking down this ridge into the nearby valley below.
