Skyline Drive runs 105 miles through Shenandoah National Park. It is one of my favorite places, so I have taken many pictures there. These are from the middle section of the park.

These girls in traditional dress were with a large group of young people in a
picnic area. Some friends really liked this picture so here’s another one with
an oil paint filter added.
The girls with traditional dress make a great fine image
ReplyDeleteSkyline drive is one of my favorite places. Beautiful photos. The last one is pretty. Take care, have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteThe park is filled with beauty
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that Skyline Drive is very beautiful. I've been there a couple of times. I also like the blackberry cobbler with blackberry ice cream that's served in the park restaurants!!
ReplyDeletebest, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Are the girls dressed in costumes for an event, or members of a religious group - aka cult?
ReplyDeleteMennonite or Amish. Not a cult, just a church that never changed with the times.
DeleteI love taking that drive too but we don't live close any more. It's beautiful in every season!
ReplyDelete...if they were here, I'd say that they were Amish.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you can go to the Skyline Drive/Shennadoah National Park so often and capture these beautiful photos. They are all inspiring.
ReplyDeleteI used to make a more or less annual backpack trips through the park. Haven't done that in quite a few years. Like to do it again.
ReplyDeletei am drawing a blank on the town name at the moment ... was it Burke's Garden? i will have to goggle it and see any who ...the hubby & i were just cruising around and found that gorgeous location in VA ...if you have never been, be sure to add it to your must see list ...breathtaking!! new to us. the Amish and Mennonites are all through VA. i didn't realize they were so around ... i knew PA and other upper states but didn't know so many pockets throughout VA. i learn so much ...it is fun. have a nice week. we had a nice rain storm last night hoping it will tide us over til the next time.
