Evaporating mist

The morning mist...I went out to walk the dog and saw the lake covered in mist. Went back to get the camera. So beautiful. The mist evaporating away, quicker then the ducks could swim into it. Not quality photos, I know, but a beautiful moment. And something to work on, if only I lived there.

Weeds

Drying flower

 

One day my daughter and I picked some flowering weeds. The next day my daughter was picking tulips from the neighbours garden. OOPS!
 

I especially like the curling edges and the bent petal.

This area is fenced off, signs claiming "Endangered species habitat, Keep out". 10 years ago, the area merely had posted No Trespassing signs. I do not have skeptic tendencies, but I have lived in this area long enough to doubt this endangered species warning. I doubt there were any near extinction fauna or flora or animals or ??? in this area. I think the state just wanted to KEEP PEOPLE OUT and since their no trespassing signs failed they are now trying to appeal to our eco-conservation sensibilities

Drybed

Where did the water go?

** although our first thought was lack of winter and no snow melt off, I think this river bed and water fall dried up many years ago, perhaps re-routed to another stream and watefall.
