New Growth, Shenandoah National Park, Virginia
Here’s another shot from my visit to Shenandoah National Park last weekend. This photograph is quite different from my first post, as it was taken at a higher elevation from deeper within the park, where the new spring growth has yet to really pop. What I like about this image is that it shows the transition from winter to spring in the mountains, with fresh green buds appearing on just a few trees while the rest still stand dormant from the cold winter months. In a short while, this entire hillside will be green with new growth. Oh, how I love spring!

This has a wonderful muted texture to it Kari. It would make a nice print.
