SUMMER SUNRISE IN THE PARK NATIONAL PARK I like how the soft

I like how the soft lighting brings out the textures of the patterns in the snow beneath the elderberry bushes

A beautiful scene with rolling hills of wildflowers along with sunflowers that make up Badlands National Park

I was thinking where I would photograph the sunrise and thought that the bridge over a frozen South Fork Kishwaukee River and the peachleaf willow tree would be a good place to set up the tripod

The evening sunlight creates a beautiful scene as I walk along the South Fork Kishwaukee river

The colors of the sunrise shifts from the purples and pinks to the oranges as the spring sun breaks the horizon on this beautiful June morning in Northern Illinois

SUMMER SUNRISE IN THE PARK NATIONAL PARK I like how the softA colorful sunrise develops with its reflection onto Wildflower Lake as a family of Canada Geese swims across the lake. (577 6 8)
