A few swamp milkweed plants are in bloom along the South Fork Kishwaukee River on this late July morning in Wildflower Park

This morning I decided to head out and photograph the storm clouds in the park that were coming through the area

BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR A PICNIC SPRAGUE LAKE Saguaro cacti and ocotillo cactiA majestic view of North Sisters Mountain and Scott Lake in the Three Sisters Wilderness, Oregon. It had been a relaxing day at the campsite after the previous days of photographing this beautiful area in the Three Sisters Wilderness. The afternoon gave way to the early evening light that brought some soft lighting and remarkable colors to this incredible scene on this October day. A memory that stays with me to this day.
