Old Stone Fort State Park Faces in Unlikely Places © Tim Gillahan
I captured this single long exposure shot while I was on a state park adventure on 06/19/2015. Me and my fiance had been hiking most of the day, so we decided to take a break in this spot. I sat and enjoyed the view, reminiscing about life and my future. I noticed that there was some foam floating around in the water. At that point, it was almost sunset, so I set up my camera and tripod and captured some long exposures of this scene, knowing the effect it would give. One thing that I didnt notice at first was the face in the water. In fact, the face is sort of reminiscent of E.T. off of one of my favorite classics. When things like this happen, it brings me peace of mind that photography is my destiny.

Park Visitor: Comments, Memories and Reviews

October 29 An awsome surprise. by jenn

I had never heard of this park before visiting but I was plesently surprised and would certinly suggest others to visit.

September 6 Trails need attention by Bruce

The main trail is in need of a layer of wood chips. Several places were difficult to transverse on Labor Day weekend, 2010. Museum was good even if it was necessary to request the video (which was out of focus!).

June 3 The wild flowers are magnififcent. by MizLollipop

Come in the Spring when the area is in bloom. Bring a guide a be prepared to be awed. This area is a natural biosphere that has approximately 122 different plant species per square mile.

December 2 fog was great by LKH

good vibrations

June 22 A real gem by Camper John

This is a great campground. The sites on the outer ring has good tree coverage. The back loop can flood if there is a lot of rain, so make sure you get a level site if there is a possibility of heavy rain.
