Around the Bend - Shenandoah National Park

Fall is always really busy in Shenandoah National Park. Often on nice weekend days, people have to wait upwards of an hour or more just to get past the fee station. Luckily, it was pouring down rain for most of Saturday, so I didn't have to wait in line at all.

The downside was that it took *forever* to get cars to pass by with their lights on for this shot. I think I stood in the same spot for almost half an hour. People probably wondered what the heck I was doing. I ended up settling for a two-car passing.

This shot didn't come out exactly like I wanted. I wish the wind would have stayed calm. I also wish that more cars would have passed by in quick succession. That would have made much nicer, more complete light trails. As soon as I packed up my gear and walked back to the car, five cars went by, practically bumper to bumper.
