06/02/12 Featured Arkansas Photography Blue water and Rocks in Searcy County a Wintertime view

Golden Water and Rocks on Falling Water Creek

Taken with a Canon 1ds MKI, 11mp camera with a Canon 100mm Macro lens Shutter speed was around 1 second at F16. I wanted to remember what the cooler times can be like in Arkansas as right now we are in such a heat wave. In the wintertime, if the water levels allow, I like to work along the stream banks looking for tight shots that feature smaller water features. All of the rocks in Arkansas streams will have have great lichen coverage so the key is to find a good series that will work for you. This shot was taken during the late afternoon, as the sun was setting. The sunlight hitting on the rocks gave everything a golden color which contrasted to the deep blue hue of the water. I took this shot along Falling Water Creek near the famous waterfalls. I tend to stay away from the waterfalls and look for more interesting less common subject matter.

Sunset and Paraglider over Pinnacle Mountain

Sunset over Pinnacle Mountain

Taken with a Canon 5D MKII, 70-300 Lens, ISO 100 F8 at a shutter speed of 1/400. There are times that you just get lucky!. While I was working this great sunset, I happend to catch this lone para-glider working around the summit of Pinnacle. For the shot I had to hand hold my Canon 5D MKII with a 70-300 lens since the light was fading too fast to switch over to my tripod. The pilot made only about 2 passes and I was able to capture him on the 2nd pass. The sun lit the plane up perfectly.

05/21/12 The Long Road to my return, please be paitent

Late afternoon vista from Flatside Pinnacle

Thank you for coming to www.photosofarkansas.com You may be a new visitor or a past visitor, but to both I ask you to be paitent. In the past when visiting my site, you would have found a website that was dedicated to showing photographic images from throughout Arkansas. These images were contained in several galleries which were specific to the various geographic regions of Arkansas i.e. Ozark Mountains, River Delta. My site was a compilation of over 8 years of hard work, many revisions and new ideas. It contained articles about photographic products, technique and locations. There also was a blog that was focused on my travels throughout Arkansas. Unfortunately, due to a total lack of professionalism by my former web administrator, in early April 2012 my entire site was lost. I have been able to salvage most of my images and some of the articles, but most of the written work was lost. I am in the process of rebuilding my site and for the next year it will be a total work in progress. My main goal for now is to get my galleries back on-line so that a visitor can enjoy once again my photographic vision of Arkansas. I appreciate your patience as i get things back in order.
