Trust me, I know this is lame

Just Looking For A Hit

I found myself with a little free time Saturday and since I haven’t gotten a lot of chances to use my ultra-wide-angle lens, I went looking for something to shoot. I eventually ended up at the old bridge over the Maumelle River on an abandoned stretch of Arkansas Highway 300 in Pinnacle Mountain State Park. This bridge is popular with local photographers and rightly so. It’s old and rusty and corroded and interesting.

The Ouachita Trail runs down this short stretch of abandoned highway. The trail runs about 200 miles across the Ouachita Mountains from Pinnacle Mountain State Park near Little Rock to eastern Oklahoma. Hanging around out there gave me the idea to hike the Ouachita Trail. I’d probably have to do it in segments. We’ll see how that idea pans out.

  1. Nicely done. I do love this bridge. The super red rust gets me every time. I’m glad to see you are liking your new lens.
