Photos of Arkansas

In the fall, on the Buffalo River you can often catch a sunset reflecting off of one of the larger bluffs.  I had spent all day working around Big Bluff and was crossing the river to get back to Steel Creek when I saw this shot.  I really had missed the main flow of the light on the bluff, but I still like the effect I was able to capture.  The sun shining on the tops of the trees really makes for a nice contrast.  This was taken originally as a 3 part HDR shot and I have reworked it many times and it’s still not where I really want it.   A definite work in progress.   One note, the river has to be really low to catch this as any current will blur the reflection.  The Buffalo was around .5 CFS that day.
