The Hazy Season Has Arrived

Summer always feels like my glasses are fogged up even when I am not wearing any. Moving to the South was a lesson in humidity survival. Trying to focus my eyes let alone my camera can be difficult when the air creates a layer between my lens and the subject of my photography. The veil of air reflects the light and changes perspective and colors. During the hazy months I see what is produced by my camera surreal than realistic.

Love to ALL!

The little details in the late spring Forest

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

I was mooned by a Lady Bug and found a small dead Crab (Arkansas does not have a coastline) on a trail… Beautiful purple Skullcap is in full bloom and lovely Birds have returned to nest in the park. The mystery bird call which starts with a loud low rumble followed me on the Short Cut Trail on Hot Springs Mountain. The last time I heard this mystery bird call was on North Mountain. Pretty Fungi sculptures grew out stumps and trail edges. Southern Magnolias are displaying buds, blooms and seed pod creation. It is a beautiful show of color white, green, rust and red.

Let life flow through the filter of your Heart. ~
