Natural Triptych

This is a photo of a small body of water that sits adjacent to the reservoir I walk around. The walking path itself is atop the land which divides the two.

As I was walking by on this particular day, I noticed how extremely green the water appeared. I wondered if it was an algae bloom. My research found that some algae blooms are harmful and others not. Regardless, the striking color caught my eye and I grabbed a photo with my cell phone.

Color in the Sun

Mother nature sure knows how to put on a display. In bright sun, spring flowers impress and entrance. They pull me in to get a closer look, to enjoy their intricate and elegant design.

Here's a sample of some of my recent favorites of flowers that burst with color, especially when graced with warm sun.

All but one of these irises are bearded irises. Photos are taken with my 12-40mm and my 60mm lenses.

Enjoy!
