Konza Prairie Sunrise
This is a shot from this past weekend on Konza Prairie. I got up later than I would have liked and just caught the last of the good morning light.

Scott, the whole scene is great, but the sun beams are a real extra. There is a lot to like about this scene.

Very nice Scott, the fg flowers and sunbeams are strong elements in this prairie scene. Well done.

what the others said :), I like the sunbeams and the flower combo and I'd say you didn't miss much by sleeping in

Excellent Scott, I was hoping to see an image from Konza. Great image all around, great light and detail.

Very nice composition and exceptional lighting. Well worth the early rise I must try it some time.
:wink:

What an uplifting image. The stair-step of the flowers seem to point to the sun's rays above. Very evocative. May all your mornings be so blessed.

Wow, what an incredible sunrise! Glad you were able to catch it before it was over. Very nice!

You nailed this one Scott. Beautiful Summer sunrise. You know that Spring is over when the woolly verbena is looking that good.
