Fall is an especially good time for photography on the Parkway. Early morning or late afternoon sunlight may offer the best possibilities.
Photographers, artists, writers, and musicians have considered the Parkway as their inspiration for generations. The long views at sunrise or sunset can be breathtaking along with the up close views that come with more careful observation. This gallery will give you just a hint of what is waiting for those with camera in hand!
