The Harpers Ferry National park is situated at the confluence of the Potomac and the Shenandoah rivers. It is also the intersection of three states, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. The photos were taken with a phone camera from the Maryland Heights trail just before sunset.
On the way back down, just as the sun was setting, the tall trees were swaying in the light breeze and seemed to be whispering. If only we could understand what they were saying. The small town still retains some of the "olden days" charm for at dusk there was nowhere an electric light to be seen but in the distance(from the trails).
Presently we came across a rock by the side of the Potomac and sat there for some time absorbing the scene. The waters flowing by, the train moving across the bridge slowly and the light in the distance all seemed to come together into the sacredness of the sunset.
