Description

I know - practically everybody's been here, done this. But since we're planning a return trip early this summer, the Glade Creek Mill in Babcock State Park (West Virginia) is on my mind. Beautiful sunshine here again today - hope it's shining for you and it's a wonderful Monday (if there is such a thing...)!

Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 10/1250 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, return light not detected, ISO: 100, FocalLength: 7.90 mm, Model: DSC-P200

Great shot with wonderful detail. #1441593

I have never been there nor done that...but there sure are a lot of photos of it! This one is very lovely. I think the autumn foliage is sometimes overpowering on a scene like this.

Yes, it is gloriously sunny here today. #9967900

Looks like a lovely place, and your capture is fantastic Monnie!

Keep thinking the hammer will fall any time now, and snow us under, lol.. #9967929

Wonderful Old Mill hope you enjoy the trip.
