Long Mountain Parkway


We drove to Rochester today, and my favorite route involves driving up the Palisades Parkway, and then taking the Long Mountain Parkway over the mountains to Route 17.  It was raining along the way, and the trees were unbelievable - there were a thousand shades of green.  What was maddening is that along a route like this, there is no place to pull over and park, so that I could get out of the car to photograph.  I saw SO many wonderful possibilities, and was limited to, as one friend calls it, "the possibility of an air bag moment." (Which means shooting through the windshield while driving.)

  1. I guess that "we" means you had a passenger, possibily one who has a driver's license. Guess that person could drive for a spell while you shoot for your blog. I only say that because on the left of the photo, it looks like there's a stone wall that might have been interesting, especially with the vegetarian growing emerging from it. But maybe the thought of an "air bag moment" gives you as much of a thrill as a great photo?
