Photos of Arkansas

Roark Bluff has to be one of the most scenic spots on the Buffalo National River.  I try to get up to photograph this bluff at least 6 to 8 times I year.  I prefer to photograph it in the spring and fall as the colors then are the best.  This particular photograph was taken late in the day in early November just as the sun was setting.  All of the fall color was gone from the top of the bluff, but the line of Maples and Sweetgums along the base were still holding their leaves and the setting sun just lit them up perfectly for me.  It had been cloudy all day and I almost didn’t stop for the photograph but it paid off.  The next morning in the Boxley valley turned out to be on of the best day’s of the year for Elk photography.  There was a good hard frost and the morning sun hitting the frost made for some excellent conditions.
