NCB's Trip Through Louisiana Part III


NCB

Recommended Posts

These pictures were taken from Natchitoches,LA to the LA/AR border. And many of them were taken on the trip back from Arkansas across I-20 as well. :D Again, I apologize for the poor quality of some of the pictures.

Trip Up to Arkansas

Land around the Interstate in between Alexandria and Natchitoches.

The only shot relative to Natchitoches I was able to get.

Interstate views from around 20 miles south of Shreveport. Notice how the trees suddenly change types due to the elevation fluctuations.

It looks like you posted the Shreveport water tower twice. But I'm leaing towards getting the S2 now and I'm looking forward to the zoom. I need to go out and play with one at one of the photo shops around here. Is it my imagination or is it pretty flat south of Shreveport and then you get some rolling hills as you get close to the Shreveport area?

Around 75 miles south of Shreveport it is mostly flat, around 50 miles south it goes from flat to rolling hills to flat and so on, and around 25 miles south of Shreveport it is very hilly, and that lasts almost all the wa up to Fouke,AR.

Yeah nice pics of the Shreveport skyline. Is that a crane in the lefthand side of one of those pics?

Thanks. Yea that crane looks to be finishing the Hollywood Casino on the banks of the Red River.

More great pics. Still amazed at your skill of taking skyline pics while in motion. :D Are you driving and doing this? I have been assuming so.

Oh no I was riding as a passenger. I would never attempt most of these pictures while driving! :D

^ Awesome. LOL I at first thought you were taking these, or at least some, while driving. I was like man, I have no idea how he is doing that. I have seen folks do it though, and do a decent job at it. Still you have a darn good skill of taking pics in motion, esp. the ones in the one thread where you took them from a bridge with 3 foot spacing was it?

Just getting onto Highway 71 off of I-220

Well well well..if it isn't the 300th Dollar General between south Shreveport and north Shreveport. :lol:

Extreme northwest Louisiana countryside. We are starting to get into the pecan tree orchards.

Looking up Highway 71. The picture would have been better without the Toyota Tacoma. ;)

Don't forget "The Wing King... The King of All Wings"... Seriously, the best name of a wing place I've ever seen. :rofl:

Haha, I love that place. Great name, and great wings! :thumbsup:

Not sure what you did here Nate but it looks interesting. At least no one got hurt I'm assuming. :D

Yes, thankfully no one was hurt. ;) But I'm still trying to figure out what happened in that pic..
