Hiking with a group of photographers in Canyonlands National Park we waited for the sunset. Hoping we would get an exquisite sunset, as the sun went down we were ready with cameras on tripods ready to capture it.

I decided to go the Arboretum in Chaska, MN at lunch time. This bee decided it was her lunch at the same time. As I stood in front of it, what happened to be a half an hour taking around 50 pictures, I caught this bee centering herself to eat. Taking her home with me, I was pleased with her portrait.

While strolling my favorite winter getaway, I glanced at the lily ponds at the Como Conservatory. I found this yellow lily amongst the leaves. Waiting for a clear view, I kneeled down and took the memory home in my camera.

My love of sunrises took me to Mesa Arch before sunrise. I feel the wait for the sunrise was worth it and I hope you enjoy my adventure.

When the weather is warm, I love going to the UofM Landscape Arboretum in Chaska, MN. I captured this tulip wanting to see its beauty on my walls. Arriving home, inserting my camera card into the computer, I was pleased with my results.
