King's Bluff Waterfall near Pedestal Rocks

King's Bluff Waterfall (Click on photograph to purchase a print)

There are too many waterfalls in Arkansas to begin to name them all.  However what I have found is that it’s more interesting to try and photograph the waterfalls that don’t run on a regularly but instead only after a major rain event.  The waterfall at King’s Bluff is one of these.  It’s one of the higher waterfalls in the area, at least 75 feet tall and is situated in a very scenic spot.  The creek that makes the falls, runs across the top of King’s Bluff which is as flat as a table and close to 50 yards long.  Then it plunges over the bluff and creates the waterfall.  It’s a hard waterfall to photograph from the top, instead it’s better to work your way down in front of the bluff and find a good spot.  This photograph was taken in the early springtime just as the trees were starting to bud out.
