A MAJESTIC SPRING SUNRISE AT WILDFLOWER LAKE

The forecast this June morning was to be mostly clear with some clouds. I thought it would be another beautiful and colorful sunrise so, I left the house wanting to photograph the beautiful wildflowers of the Park with a colorful sunrise. I knew where in the park that had an abundance of wildflowers, which was near Wildflower Lake. I reached the trailhead soon after leaving the house with camera gear in hand and it wasn't long before I started seeing the wildflowers along the lake which included cup plants, golden alexanders, meadow rue, virginia spiderwort and ironweed that had yet to bloom. The colors of the sunrise began to appear filling the sky so, I set up my tripod, camera, waited a couple more minutes until the colors really began to come alive and began photographing the wildflowers and sunrise at Wildflower Lake. This had been a beautiful spring sunrise landscape scene to photograph on this June morning at Wildflower Park. (498-14)
