A couple of beautiful sunrises at the River Ponds

(7 shot stitched panorama: each frame ISO 100, 10mm, f/8, 1/25) At the risk of “TMI”, I’ve been working on developing some better habits for 2014, one of which is setting a regular sleep schedule and getting up at 6:30 a.m. I haven’t been much of a morning person so the first week of this […]

From the Field:First sunrise outing of 2014

Happy New Year!

A Cold Morning at Pillsbury Crossing and a Cold Sunset at Willow Lake.

Nice weather on Saturday and brutally cold on Sunday…ahh Kansas weather.  I had hoped the heavy snows before Christmas and the warm weather on Saturday would mean lots of snow melt which would have the waterfalls at Pillsbury Crossing running heavy. Then I had hoped the nasty cold weather that developed early Sunday morning would […]

Sunday morning I was out at the outlet area of Tuttle Creek Lake to watch, and […]
