I left the house for the Buffalo River a little after 4AM to catch this in the golden hour. I was pleasantly surprised by the fog. I liked this photo (above) as I think it looks a little exotic. The top picture was shot with a 28-105mm L zoom while the lower a 14mm L prime.
I’ve tried to make timelapse videos of Cactus Pete this year but haven’t been happy with them. He’s about done for the year, I think, but I was able to get this one today. Since it has been cloudy, the lighting was consistent throughout. This is roughly two hours compressed to 17 seconds.
Getting places before the crack of dawn is getting harder and harder. Six or seven weeks ago it was 7:30ish, this morning it was 6:25. Vista Point on Lake Maumelle.
