Sunset on the Blue Ridge Mountains

This image was recorded in 2006 on Skyline Drive right at twilight. I shot this with a Canon EOS A2 camera on Fuji Chrome Velvia 100. The twilight sky was this exact shade of blue and purple and I choose the Fuji slide film to better record the latitude of the shadow detail and the vibrant colors. I scanned this image from the original slide. It is easy to see how the Blue Ridge Mountains got their name when you see beautiful colors like this along the drive.
