Read about the history
and renovation of Mabry
Mill: BlueRidgeCountry.
com/Mabry.

Mabry Mill, at Milepost 176.2 of the Virginia
section of the Blue Ridge Parkway, was
built during a 1903-5 period by Ed Mabry.
By 1908, he and his wife, Lizzie, operated
it as a gristmill. The National Park Service
acquired the mill in 1938, soon after Ed died.
It's WORTH A CLICK to BlueRidgeCountry.

on Ed and Lizzie, and ourJuly/August 2014
story on the mill's restoration that year.

a EF 17-40mm Canon "L" lens on a Gitzo
Mountaineer Carbon Fiber Tripod with a 3
stop Singh Ray Reverse Graduated Neutral
Density Filter and a B and W Kaessaman
Circular Polarizing Filter. The image was
taken at 21mm, for 1 sec at F/11. ISO 100 with
manual metering."
