forestwander's most popular photosForestWander Nature Photography originates from the Mountains and Forests of West Virginia. Over the past several years Troy Lilly and his son Rusty and now Ray Ray also hike through the forests taking high resolution nature photography and video.
Our images offer amazing views of little known areas throughout remote areas in the national and state forests. Our images have been hosted in nature photography contests, national websites and local magazines and books.
ForestWander's inspiration began in 2004 when Troy was saved and born again at a little country church in Heizer, West Virginia. He then fell in love with the Gospel song "How Great Thou Art" which brought forth the name ForestWander.http://gallery.forestwander.com/ForestWander-Video/Mountain-Scenery-Video/ForestWander-Nature/559966403_68Sj3-Ti.jpghttp://gallery.forestwander.com/popular/2009-11-20T10:33:32ZCopyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
