We recently vicited Shenandoah in late October 2004. It had already passed the peak of foliage scene
but the forest down the valley still looked colorful. The picture was taken at a view point on center
of the park which had a typical overlooking view.
Clouds
The weather was not so good that day. However, the clouds shading the valley and the scene
made the view more profound.
Mountains
A very beautiful view. Range of mountains to the horizon shaded under the clouds made it look
like a Chinese painting which emphasizes not just the accuracy of how a scene looked like,
but also the mood and how the painter felt about the scene.
Sea of clouds
Another view that looks like Chinese painting.

The cloud and sun highlighted the edge of mountains which made the depth of the picture extend to far away.
It is one of my favorite pictures in Shenandoah.
