Project 365 d-209

     Out driving near sunset this evening and discovered a new part to a familiar park. Quite simply, I had just never bothered to take this road as I assumed it was just another way to access the lake. Assumptions are very powerful and in this case they had robbed me of seeing two beautiful fields full of wild flowers. I'm quite sure that during the day they would be filled with butterflies, bees and all kinds of wild life. With the sun now slipping below the trees this arrangement of purple flowers caught my eye. It's called "Rough Blazing Star" and is a native flower to this state. The light had faded just enough that I decided to use a little flash to chase away some shadows that were starting to appear. When I have a chance, I will go back there and fill some memory cards with more of the wonderful wildflowers that God so graciously planted for you and me.

Happy Shooting.
