sunset on the flats
I wasn’t sure what my photo of the day would be today. Then we drove out to La Conner right at sunset. We passed a birch tree that was glowing, moved into a brilliant orange sunburst, and continued on into the hot glow of the west over the green Skagit fields. I wished desperately forContinue reading “sunset on the flats”

summer light

A few days ago I happened to look outContinue reading “golden chard”

It rained a lot last week. I had driven to work one day and was walking through the parking lot when I saw a pink rhododendron that was shedding its flowers all over the pavement. I decided getting the shot was more important than trying to keep my camera dry.
