Photo "Trek" Report

We went hiking today and I tried to get some shots for the Non-Disney Artistic photos thread. Sadly most of them turned out to be non-artistic as well as non-Disney. Anyway I figured since I took them all I'd share them, so here's a few shots from our hike:

Here's the most artistic one, that I put in the other thread:

The Preserve has a nice little pond:

Even better it has a secluded area:

With a bench:

Where you can watch the "waterfall":

As well as observations towers:

Here's the views from that one:

What does that "waterfall" empty into? Is that just a puddle?

The pic of the "Secluded Area" looks kind of creepy!

Ooohh, it does. I just thought it looked peaceful at first. Now that you mention it, it looks like something you'd see on Court TV.

@Admin - It's Cedar Ridge Preserve. By fart the best/closest hiking near downtown Dallas.

@Brad - Waterfall is part of a creek that continues on past there.

@Dsoup -- Yeah that pic isn't the best. It's really quite lovely to go in there and sit on the bench and watch the creek go by.

@LifeIsForLiving -- I can attest that we've never stumbled on to any bodies in there ...

Well of course you haven't stumbled on them, because you knew where they were.

Ha ha! I always think about this when I'm hiking, but I'm horribly paranoid! laugh
