Beautiful shot David. A Wall Hanger for sure.


Beautiful shot! I am very familiar with Blowing Rock and the BRP. Where were you on the BRP and were you looking towards Boone or towards N. Wilkesboro or the Lenoir area?

Thanks! This was taken from the Thunder Hill overlook, looking towards Lenoir. I'm pretty sure that's where all the city light was coming from.

I know where that is and I would agree that it would be Lenoir. We have a cabin just off the BRP about 45 minutes north of Blowing Rock so over the last 20 years we have been up and down vast stretches of the BRP and most of the back roads of Ashe County.

I was in Blowing Rock North Carolina last week on vacation. The last night we were there I was able to get out on the parkway for some Milky Way shots. We also had a nice lightning show as well, as you can see in the lower left of the shot.

Nikon D500 w/ the Nikon 20mm f1.8. ISO 2000. 20 second exposure.

Excellent picture. I haven't really seen the Milky Way since the days I used to visit my in-law's farm in rural Iowa. City dwellers miss a lot.

Excellent photograph. There are so many elements included within this one capture that I cannot do adequate praise.

rdarlington43 you have replied to the OP but under my reply and not the original. I think Dave found it though.
