When planning my recent visit to Blackwater Falls State Park in West Virginia, my first goal was to get a great shot of Blackwater Falls (see my previous post "Autumn Waterfalls in West Virginia"). My second goal was to get a great shot at Lindy Point, which presents a beautiful vista of the southern portion of Blackwater Canyon. My wife and I hiked to Lindy Point for the sunset and encountered soft, warm light that accentuated the rocks and beautiful fall foliage.
We actually arrived at Lindy Point well before the sunset so I could scout out a good location for the shoot. I had hoped for some dramatic clouds and I received exactly what I had hoped for. Unfortunately, it didn't last. All the clouds left just after we arrived. I shot the following about an hour and a half before sunset:
The hike to Lindy Point is fairly easy and well worth it. We liked Lindy Point so much, we actually visited it twice during the same weekend.
