I like this photo. I like trying to guess where it might be. It's not the American west, given the proliferation of underbrush and hardwood trees. It's a rocky riverbed (not the deep soil of the coastal plain). The larger tree with the pronounced crooks, angled over the river from the left bank appears to be sycamore, which is common in the eastern United States, especially in the Ohio, Mississippi and Tennessee River basins. There is enough relief (hillside) on the left to indicate this probably isn't the bottomlands of a major river or in the prairie regions. There are no pines at all, suggestion (but not conclusive) that this isn't the southern Appalachian region.
My guess would be Ozarks or middle Appalachian region, including Maryland, West Virginia, southeastern Ohio, Pennsylvania.
Aldo Leopold could probably pinpoint the county. I might be half a world off. :)
Very close. This pic doesnt do it justice as the water is usually very green due to the rock bottom. Ridge to the left, rolling bottoms to the right. The river turns north here. Near the Tennessee/Alabama line.
