Photo Friday: Under Gray Skies Posted by drfl on May 11th, 2012

When storms were suspected I travelled out to Jack Sinn Wildlife Management Area in Saunders and Lancaster Counties and found some very dynamic clouds reflected in the marshy landscape. I left with this photograph, another tilt-shift pano and a pair of wet feet. I was in such a hurry to shoot that I forgot to put on my waders on before leaving the car!

Photo Friday: Morning GlidePosted by drfl on May 4th, 2012

A couple of weeks ago before the Mahoney Art Show began I took a little time to photograph Mahoney State Park. Mahoney is a diverse park with some great quiet areas, especially at 7 or before on a weekend morning. I spent about an hour with the geese and quiet, something that is increasingly difficult to find in today’s world.

Photo Friday: Lavender and LutescentPosted by drfl on April 27th, 2012

While everything is a verdant green, flowers are popping everywhere and adding color to the landscape. Today’s post was captured at Schramm State Recreation Area in eastern Nebraska. The mix of yellow, purple, and green really caught my eye.

Today’s Photo Friday is another image from Two Rivers State Recreation Area. I recommend hiking and exploring the south end of this park as I think there are some great nature opportunities to be had out there. If you haven’t visited this area, check it out. This image was taken of the Platte River on the west side of the park.

Photo Friday: Spring IlluminationPosted by drfl on April 6th, 2012

Spring is in full swing! Trees are budding, the birds are singing, and the muddy mess of this past “winter” is disappearing. Today’s image comes from Two Rivers State Recreation Area in eastern Nebraska. I haven’t done much photography there, actually, I don’t think I’ve even been there since I was a child and it’s only about 20-25 minutes from my house. I really should explore it a little more.
