After a Big Rain in June

by

An Early Morning Thunderstorm brought Hail and about Four Inches of Rain to the Prairie. I went out just as the Storm was ending. The delicate Prairie Rose Blossoms were Pretty Beat Up. But the Milkweed were just Shy of Blooming. One of the Lakes was Full Up. It continued to Thunder and Lightning East and West of the Prairie. So I skedaddled after a Few Dark and Damp Hours…

April in the West Draw

On a very Cool and Overcast late April Day at the Mouth of the West Draw I visited my Old Friend, the Goner Cottonwood. Then by following the Water Upstream the Afternoon revealed bright New Blooms, some more recent Wind Damage & a few faded Remnants of the Old Year.

December, Once Again

by

Here is a slideshow from December, 2013.

With these I completed my “Circle Around the Sun.”

I photographed Nine Mile Prairie an average of twice a week for an entire year.

It has taken another year to edit all of the photographs

and to publish them to this website.

 

I began this project shortly after my 65th birthday. Tomorrow I will be 67.

There is more  to come…
