Tulsa River Trail in the AM

Filed under: Arkansas River,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 9:18 am

I got up before sunrise this morning (no mean feat for me) to take pictures along the river. Unfortunately, the sun never broke through the clouds. I’ll try again tomorrow, when the forecast is sunnier.

Near to falling...

...already done fell.

Flowers. Yellow flowers.

More Tulsa Fall Coloring

Filed under: Arkansas River,Family,The Kids,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 7:36 pm

Serene & I went to the River Trail so I could get some last-bit-of-daylight fall images.

Bleak, isn't it?

Finally, some shots of autumn here in Tulsa

Finally, some shots of autumn here in Tulsa. Still waiting for the leaves to really turn, but there are few spots of color.

Morning River Walk

Filed under: Arkansas River,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 1:50 pm

Instead of skating today, I walked along the River Trail with my camera. There’s been this tree turning orange for the past couple weeks, and I’ve wanted to take its picture. Plus, recent rains have caused the Arkansas River to be much higher than normal.

I just like reflections, even of ugly things

It's grass, silly

That New Thing in Jenks

Filed under: Arkansas River,Family,The Kids,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 10:07 pm

We went down to the new shopping center in Jenks, located by the river at the 93rd Street Bridge. The light was gorgeous when we got there, but it was late evening, so it faded pretty fast.

Black and White Panoramas

Filed under: Arkansas River,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 1:48 pm

Decided to try my hand at some black & white conversion. I think this is one area where full blown Photoshop probably would be handy, rather than just PS Elements. Still, it’s another aspect I expect will improve only with practice.

From The River’s Edge

Filed under: Arkansas River,Family,The Kids,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 8:00 pm

The kids & I dropped Susan off for Writers Anonymous, and then headed over to the River’s Edge. We played in the playground area, and took some pictures from the “pier”.

Photo Walk by the River

Filed under: Arkansas River,Downtown,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 8:00 pm

I’ve started taking what I call “photo walks”. So far, I’ve only walked in the evenings, towards sunset. I need to do one just after sunrise. It could happen.


This flower was taken from a distance of less than 2 feet. The skyline was taken from a distance of over 4 miles.

Tripod, Playground, & Power Outage

Filed under: Arkansas River,Family,The Kids,Tulsa — DavidRM @ 8:00 pm

Davis, Serene & I went to Riverparks to test out the tripod a bit. Then we headed down to one of the playground areas. Later in the evening, the power went out (2nd weekend in a row now). Candlelight made great shadow puppets…but was somewhat limited for taking pictures.
