Maumelle River

Very unusual habitat. I like the exposure you used, as the swirling water softens the dark jutting roots. This river would make a great location for either a science fiction movie or one of those ‘How the Earth Began’ programs on the Nature Channel! One question–why so dismal, when you say each day gets more interesting?

Strange shot, you have to look twice to work out what it is, but I like it, Congrats.

The timing of the shot makes the highlights in the river water look like hair; very unusual.

It looks like a painting ! Beautiful !

So interesting, other-worldly, and intriguing! It makes me wonder how this scene came to be. From your title, I take it the river floods the grove every spring but is dry the rest of the year. The roots are there, but the trees are dead, yes? If so, I guess they don’t mind getting wet. Thanks for the POTD.

The forest must have gotten swamped at one time & now the river rules! An unusual shot, I like it a lot.

Thank you to everyone for the comments and feedback. The Cypress trees are very much alive. In this location, Cypress trees line the banks of the river and send vertical roots up into the middle of the river. Typically the water is moving more slowly; this was taken after heavy rains when the water was up. Thanks again!

Ooooooooo, this is one of the most unusual perspectives and vantage points I have ever seen, thanks to you, of course.

Really a unique place!!Thanks for share!!Great shot!!

Lovely picture. Thanks for sharing.
