"Rural Arkansas"...


Highways provide access to visual, timeless treasures that you can't often experience from the Interstates. This single photograph provides a richness of rural flavor, from the alluring curve which leads through the community, to the rural school zone on the highway, to the homestead with the detached garage and larger barn. You may be able to see the old pickup truck in the left-side stall of the barn.

Location: near high school, Bigelow, Arkansas.

"Aster Art"...


Wild Aster in black-and-white. You can see the detailed pollen on the lower petals. Few take the time to appreciate art in nature. This photograph reflects a sample of just how wonderfully simple and beautiful nature can be, even without color. Comments welcome.

"Hog Wild Moonshine Chopper"...



This rural art is very creative, entertaining and detailed. Is this a remnant of the past or future? Is this a turn off Fury Road? Hope you enjoy.

This is part of a collection which I've shared over the past decade.
Location: rural Arkansas (protecting the location from vandals). April, 2012.
