Bill by the Buffalo River
Here's an image of Bill Dark photographing a kayaker on the Buffalo River beneath Roark Bluff (Steele Creek) a couple of years back. Several of us CSNP'ers were photographing fall colors in the area when we ran into Tim Ernst and one of his workshops.

Hope you all had a wonderful fall. :wavey:

Hey Wayne, I remember that day! Nice perspective of the river and Bill.

Hey Wayne, did you get a model release on this??? Hahahaha...good thing you didn't get a front shot, people would have recognized me on the wall at the post office!!!

Jokes aside, this is a great comp, Wayne. I think Angela made a nice addition to the scene. That was a fun morning for sure. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks guys. I've been updating my website (adding new galleries) and as part of that process I have been going back through my image files looking for images I haven't processed before. Found this one during that process and I liked this comp but the contrast was too great so I did a hand blend of two exposures to get this final image.

Hey Bill, I was thinking of submitting it to Ozarks magazine. Think it's a future cover image?

Have a great weekend everyone! :wavey:

Good shot. We need more images of photographers in action, helps motivate people to get out and shoot.
