When I’m in Northern Virginia my go-to location is always Great Falls Park on the Potomac River.  From the cascading waterfall to the cliff walls of Mather Gorge, there is always something interesting to find and photograph.  On this particular winter morning, I found the blue and gray tones of the winter sky reflecting into the calm waters of the Potomac River to be very beautiful.  The opposite bank is in the state of Maryland.  The famed Billy Goat Trail scales the rocks in this photograph as it rounds the corner and loops back into the park.
