On our recent trip to Roanoke, Virginia (USA), we
got off the highway and did a very nice stretch of road in West Virginia (WV State
Rt. 259, I think) before we got on the Blue Ridge Parkway. I saw lots and lots of fences along the way
on that road and on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
I’ll post the ones I like best today.
The John Denver song “Country Roads” kept going
through my mind as we traveled down through West Virginia. He calls it “almost heaven.” They call it “wild and wonderful.” I just call it beautiful. There
is another place I need to get back to with my camera and time to spare.
And, of course, the Blue Ridge Parkway is just one
of the most extraordinary country roads in the whole USA.
So here they are…fences along some country roads.

They're all very beautiful, indeed, but I LOVE the 3rd shot, very dramatic shot in b&w! =)
I like that barbed wire fence one. for some reason reminds me of the film Shawshank Redemption, dont ask me why but i think its to do with the look of coldness and isolation
These are beautiful. I have to confess, I love the old stacked rails of the fences in Virginia. Your last photo from Pennsylvania is magnificent against that sky.
love them all! the b&w long perspective one especially!
lovely pics :)
Loving the barb wire ! Great shots all around Barb! :)
I agree with John Denvers song...That part of the country, Va, WVa n the blue ridge parkway is a treasure trove of photo ops! Great shots!
Oh, these are wonderful! I came to the black and white one and thought it couldn't get any better...then came to the last ones...wonderful!
These are all wonderful, but I'm partial to the picket fence! I know I'm a dreamer. Great shots!
these are so very beautiful ! love picture one and two much. thank you for this much needed escape. please have you all a good weekend.
A great variety of fences.
wow, you had a great trip. i love west va. such a great state. the blue ridge parkway is just a lovely ride. not sure which i love better virginia or north carolina. great shots. (:
It's almost impossible to take a bad photo from the Blueridge MT. Parkway, don't you agree? You've captured such an interesting variety, including, I think, a runaway truck lane? :-)
I am attracted to that first picture...
Beautiful landscapes! Best wishes!
The last one looks like a waterfall.
these are spectacular, in the first shot i like the houses better than the fence, the last one is awesome, i like all your fence shots and rather see them than my boring fences in the jungle.
Wow! Those are gorgeous! Each time I thought one was my favorite, I saw the next one. I honestly can't decide. They're all beautiful!
O_O!!!!Beautiful pictures!!!the best for me is the last photo!!wow!! :)
what a fabulous view!
i love these shots. every single one is wow!
Wonderful captures, - love your editing.
beautiful, I'm always impressed how your fences are all different, here it seems all the same and boring..
very nice pictures, the colours and tone of the last one is my favorite.
