  Nice shot, Darren. The song by "The Seldom Scene" goes,

"Blue ou, ou, ou, ou Ridge,
Do you call to all your children,
Like you've been calling me?
Blue ou, ou, ou, ou Ridge,
Why are you calling me home?"

This photo captures that magical feeling that being in this beautiful section of the country often invokes. I know it made me feel a bit homesick for "Ol' Virginy".
