Black Moshannon State Park

Black Moshannon State Park, in Pennsylvania
Black Moshannon State Park, in Pennsylvania
Black Moshannon State park is an amazing bog, and when the sun sets, you can capture beautiful reflections in the boggy water. This spot in particular is just as quick walk down the trail, along a board walk. I photographed this directly on the viewing deck. To the right of where this shot was taken, you can see Kayakers paddling along the water most times of day, which can make for a great photograph as well. #BVS #Sunset #Pennsylvania
Black Moshannon is one of the best places for photography in PA. The water is such a dark color that you can get some beautiful sunset reflections! #Pennsylvania #adventure #travelphotography
