After some nights with snow and wind gusts I woke up in Shenandoah National Park for a magnificent sunrise along Skyline Drive. The sky colored deep red and in the valley some low hanging clouds made this a perfect sunrise. This year i’m visiting all 59 national parks and publishing my photos at parkwonders.com Have fun in the parks, Jan Heijdra
