A Restorative Walk in the Woods
“The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.“
—JOHN MUIR, 1938
The power of the woods to restore: I found Cedar Creek in Petit Jean State Park, Arkansas, during a restorative walk in the woods, with no destination, no deadline and no demands, on a crisp fall day. More of my photographs at AustinDetailsArt.com

If you have never been to Arkansas, don’t write it off. it is a very beautiful state with many different topographic sites.
The northwest portion of the state, where I’ve traveled, is a gem. Thanks for commenting!
So beautiful and inspiring! I love that the image just about says it all….not many words needed.
I love that about it too, and thanks for that observation. Nature offers us more than we could ever use up, doesn’t it?
So many beautiful forests. So little time. Put these on your photographic itinerary: Baxter State Park and Mt. Katahdin. Transformative!
Agree, and will do! Thanks for commenting on our shared love.
