TREE OF ICE IN A FROZEN WORLD Size:24X36 METAL PRINT A colorful misty morning presents

A colorful misty morning presents itself as the sunbursts through a hawthorn tree with Wildflower Lake taking on the colors and reflections on this spring morning at Wildflower Park

I quickly composed the wildflowers of the swamp milkweed and cup plants with the colors of the sunrise and began photographing

I left the house around 4:30 am and headed to the Burnidge Forest Preserve

By the time I was finished photographing the foggy landscape this morning

I enjoy listening to the red-bellied woodpeckers
