"Band of Brothers, Study I"


Certain times of year, you'll see white-tailed bucks gather together. Here you see four bucks showing their inquisitive nature yet always on watch. There were actually a few more out of the frame. Comments welcome.

Location: private land, Arkansas. August, 2016.

"Big house on the hill"...


Just a few generations ago, this house was considered big! We often forget what families had to go through to have what little they had. And it's not often how much you have that brings you happiness. The simplest things matter. To see how this house sits on top of this hill, offering such a grand view, the family who built this must have been proud. Comments welcome.

Location: homestead, Big Flat, Arkansas (Baxster/Searcy county). July, 2016.

"Stories and Songs"...


Red Hill Community Church opened in the 1940's and closed its doors around 1961. Not much remains of this church today, but this piano, inside these walls, could sing many songs and tell many stories. Comments welcome.

Location: near Marshall (Searcy County), Arkansas. I don't want to share the location to keep it protected as much as possible.
