There's Not a Lot of Traffic in New River Gorge National Park & Preserve

            While walking the Stone Cliff Trail in New River Gorge National Park & Preserve with a view looking to the south. My thinking in composing this image was a few things. One was to use the trail ahead as a leading line into the forested setting and woods. The other was to capture this opening in the trees that allowed sunlight to come through while other areas were still caught in shadows. That was a contrast of lights in my mind for this captured image.
