Have you ever started out thinking you’re going to do one thing, and turns out you end up doing something else completely different? Yeah, that…
I started out on my photo hike this weekend thinking I would go to the historic downtown of a small city near me ~ well, really not so near. It took about an hour to drive there, and was sorely disappointed in the lack of photo opps available. Fortunately for me, just a few miles down the road was a state park I haven’t visited in a while… crisis averted.
And, of course there were a couple of broken down structures to be photographed on the way there and back.
Falling Waters State Park near Chipley, FL:
Falling waters
Fern gully
Sink hole
End cap
Green spaces
Wayside
Dilapidated
Caged light

Beautiful! Love the sink hole and acorn!
I like Green Spaces a lot, but my favorite is Wayside. I have a thing for forgotten places.
These are all so gorgeous!
I’m always a sucker for waterfalls of any size, but that pit it was dropping into! Wow!
beautiful images, Tara! love the focus on the acorn cap.

Another fan of the green spaces here – that one’s especially wonderful.
Should add, congrats on the nanowrimo! One of my favorite authors CE Murphy (www.mizkit.com) is doing it this year and tracking progress on her blog. If I ever stop working so much, I’ll be signing up as well.
The ‘Green Space’ shot is brilliant. Something very special about that picture. Well done.

That sink hole is great.
i really like green spaces! the contrast of the green and the weathered wood is beautiful.
What a great shot of the waterfalls. It looks so serene!
I have never met someone who can take the most basic structures and turn them into a beautiful work of art like you can with buildings & such. I always want to know MORE about them, what their story was.
I can almost hear the hush in the park and feel the peaceful atmosphere. Beautiful shots.
Lots of wonderful photo ops after all. “end cap” and “green spaces” are mu favorites.
Your blog, especially this post, gave me inspiration to be a better photographer. Enjoy your day.
Superb. I am in love with the “wayside” photo and the “green spaces”. Your photos are always breathtaking, Tara. I can imagine how much you must have enjoyed your photo hike! It is a real treat for me!
So beautiful…
