Blackberry leaves with Virginia mountains in the distance

Blackberry leaf, autumn, Blue Ridge Parkway

This photo was taken from just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, between Buena Vista and Montebello, Virginia, three years ago today. The leaves in the right foreground are blackberry leaves. In the distance, of course, are some of the Virginia mountains.

The photo is a live link to our Flickr photostream, and, if you click on it, you should go to the photo's own page. There's an icon above the photo, saying that you can see more sizes, including higher resolution versions of this photo. The photo is natural color.

Thanks for looking. Isn't God a great artist?

    Gorgeous view!

    I've heard that blackberry leaf tea is a good home remedy for the shingles.

    Thanks, FancyHorse.

    I should have tried that remedy a few years ago.

    I've ridden my bike along that stretch of the Parkway, and it's gorgeous. Your picture makes me homesick...
