With rain on the way I decided to stay close to home today and visited Fletcher Creek west of Little Rock off Kanis Road. I decided to not cross over the creek on that log bridge in the second picture.

I wanted to get out of the house and shoot fog this morning. Fortunately, there was some fog after all the rain over the last couple days though not as much as I hoped for. I chose Rattlesnake Ridge for its nice views of Lake Maumelle, Pinnacle Mountain, and the unnamed valley to the south of Lake Maumelle.

A few months ago I learned that there was a “horseshoe bend” in the Buffalo and I’ve been planning to go shoot it sometime. Today was the day. Ms. GPS took me right there though it was a series of increasingly sketchy roads toward the end. At the end there is a definitely non-official trail, more of a beaten path, to the edge of an overlook. I took two pictures, one with and one without a photogenic tree. I can’t decide which I like better so I include both. It’s a two hour drive but I want to return under different conditions. On the way home, I stopped at the Tyler Bend Campground and shot the cliffs over the river.
