A MAJESTIC VIEW ALONG THE CREEK WALKING A red-tailed hawk circles overhead

A red-tailed hawk circles overhead as it gains lift and catches the heat thermals beneath the cumulus clouds during this winter afternoon at Wildflower Park

waited a couple more minutes until the colors really began to come alive and began photographing the sunrise at Wildflower Lake

I was looking for some good wildflower composition to photograph with the sunrise and came upon this scene of eastern daisy fleabane

I decide to photograph silhouettes of trees

I continued past the cottonwood trees

A MAJESTIC VIEW ALONG THE CREEK WALKING A red-tailed hawk circles overheadAfter some snowfall overnight, I headed out in the morning to this beautiful view along a partially frozen Eakin Creek West, with the soft lighting of the sun illuminating this majestic scene along with a box elder tree on the creeks banks at Wildflower Park.
