Stormy Morning
When I arrived on Deep Creek Rd. yesterday morning, the sun was shining nice & bright, and it was already hot and sultry. Within a couple hours, the skies changed dramatically as storms approached. This was shot somewhere on Nehring Branch Rd. SE of Alma. This pasture had a great stand of butterfly milkweed.

I saw no less than 30 different species of wildflowers yesterday!

Canon Rebel XTI, handheld
70-200 mm lens
ISO 100, F11 @ 1/80

Nice shot, I really like the layers in this Angela.

Hey Angela, Very pretty shot... The flowers establish the foreground with the tree line adding the center contrast leading to the light green hills and the dark sky. Well balanced . Great shot of what I remember as dry-windy-cold-brown hills.

Nicely done, Angela. Looks like the forbs over your way are coming alive with some beautiful color.

The butterfly milkweed looks like its in perfect condition right now. The dark blue skies have been all too common of late. Nice work Angela.
