Early 4th of July morning, Carillon Point. Sun was perfectly warm and lit this flowers colors up incredibly, had to stop 🙂

Walking Jake this morning after grabbing some fresh Espresso Beans at the local Capital Hill place, came across this. Loved the texture and feeling of a mini habitat developing on the ‘banks’ of this tree knot…

Took a walk during lunch today, came across this set of grasses with such a contrast. Love the greens and the detail. Thinking of Art Wolfe, saw the three bands of abstract colors/textures when I took the shot. Still amazed with the latest lens.

The entire region has these all over the Oak trees. I just love the look, can’t get enough, AND found some nice light mid-storm to get this !
