(Note – this is a reprint from last year, retitled. We hear that NOW is the time to be in the mountains if you want to see the foliage this year. What do YOU hear?)
Good morning, Red Dirt Country. We haven’t had a “Friday Morning Shout Out” in a few weeks, so I thought I would provide you with a little treat. I’m going to take you back, back, back…all the way to November 13th of this year. Was that just one month ago?
It was a beautiful day, and a few members of the Tulsa Digital Photography Group were winding around the hills of Oklahoma’s famous Talimena Drive. Sometimes they’d wind all the way over to Mena, Arkansas. But, then they would hop right back into our great state once again…shooting the autumn beauty in “God’s Country” all the while.
The borders of Oklahoma and Arkansas get a little fuzzy when there is so much beauty in one place. And, photographers like Brian Favell did their best to capture all of what the perfect drive for Fall had to offer. It seems that every year is different; who knows what 2011 has in store for the beholder? But for this year, and for that day, and for this Shout Out, we’re going to share with you what Brian found – through his eyes, on his journey down the beautiful, twisty, turvy, upsy and downsy Talimena Drive of Eastern Oklahoma.
Thanks Brian, for the tour…and thanks, Oklahoma mountains, for once again showing us what you’ve got!
