CENTURY 21 Mertz & Associates May 9, 2021

 
Maybe you want to add a few landscapes to your home art wall, or perhaps you're overdue for family pictures. May is National Photo Month, making it the perfect time to update your photography collection. Check out these scenic spots around the Susquehanna Valley that are ideal for snapping a few photos. Our real estate agents know that these locales will provide a terrific backdrop for your photos.
 

1. Selinsgrove and the Isle of Que

If you need a break exploring Lewisburg homes for sale, spend a day in Selinsgrove. Selinsgrove is a small, charming town that leads to the Isle of Que. The Isle of Que is a picturesque island that measures a little over 5 miles in length and less than a half of a mile in width. The bridge that connects Selinsgrove to the Isle of Que boasts gorgeous views of the Susquehanna River; it's a fantastic spot to grab a family photo. On the Isle of Que, loads of greenery and plentiful river views provide a multitude of spots for your photography session. Sunset on the Isle of Que transforms the island sky into a scene filled with awe-inspiring colors.
 

2. Shikellamy State Park

Shikellamy State Park is a must-visit locale for recreational opportunities and fabulous photo ops. The Shikellamy Overlook Section overlooks the north and west branches of the Susquehanna River. You'll enjoy views of the water, nearby bridges, and the surrounding wooded areas. Lake Augusta, a 3,060-acre body of water, is another great spot for waterfront photography. Or, take a trek on the nature trail for views of wildflowers, geologic formations, wildlife, and greenery.
 

3. Milton State Park

Right by Milton homes for sale, Milton State Park is a terrific spot for photogs searching for multiple opportunities to capture shots of nature. The park is an 82-acre island that offers fantastic views of the West Susquehanna River. You can spot other islands at some locations, and there are beachy spots within the park. The entire southern portion of the island has been kept in a wooded, natural state. It's a wonderful area to capture shots of wildlife and native vegetation.
 

4. Bloom Beach

Take a break from touring Bloomsburg homes for sale and stop at Bloom Beach. Bloom Beach is located on Fishing Creek, which eventually feeds into the Susquehanna River. Your photos will reflect the peaceful tranquility in this area.
 

5. Old Reading Railroad Bridge

The Old Reading Railroad Bridge combines man-made beauty with elements of nature. The railroad is no longer in operation, so you can safely take photos from the bridge. While the bridge is starting to show its age, it's a fantastic historical backdrop for your shots. Around the bridge, you can take advantage of the views of the mountainside and Susquehanna River. Some visitors report that the Old Reading Railroad Bridge is a great spot to photograph birds, including bald eagles that swoop through the nearby mountains and hills.
