FINDING SOME BEAUTY IN THE PARK MAPLE TREE north-northwest on this January morning

north-northwest on this January morning

I stopped by the bridge that crosses over the South Fork Kishwaukee River and photographed the bridge during the blue hour as I had plenty of time to reach the lake before the sun would rise

waited a couple more minutes until the colors really began to come alive and began photographing the sunrise at Wildflower Lake

I made that my priority today

This image of a paper birch tree was photographed a couple weeks ago during some of the snow storms we had here in Northern Illinois. Wildflower Park. (477 138)
