Fragments from Floyd, Virginia

Photojournal of naturalist, photographer and writer, Fred First from Floyd County in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. Started in the spring of 2002, a year when Fred's morning musings in an unexpected sabbatical from an unsatisfying career gave rise to his first book, Slow Road Home. Book two will include many of the digital landscapes and natural history images he has posted at Fragments. Check the sidebar for links to some of his image galleries, his book website, and more.
