All of these Ladies'-tresses orchid images were taken on a day trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina. The first stop was to the parking lot of the Cradle of Forestry center off of Hwy. 276 in the Pisgah National Forest north of Brevard, North Carolina. The remainder of the images were taken along the Blue Ridge Parkway in western North Carolina.
