Mountain Laurel at Raven rock state Park. I made a mistake thinking these were Rhododendron but thanks to gjwahl for letting me know that they aren't.

Such a beautiful capture of these lovely blooms. I love Rhododendrons. We had whole bushes of them in front of the house in Connecticut where I grew up. A nice memory.

What an unusual color! I have only seen red and pink and violet rhododendrons before, but never such a beautiful white.
The image is a bit grainy, perhaps you could try some program like NeatImage (it's freeware I think) to get rid of it?

wow! i've never seen flowers like that before. its a beautiful shot. but maybe you could crop out some of the leaves and extra flowers you don't need in the picture, or get a different angle maybe. but overall its a great picture! :)

Those flowers are not rhododendrons, but rather a related plant called "mountain laurel" (see here.)
