A Walk with my Camera

It was so beautiful today that I just couldn't stay inside.  So I took my camera (and dog) and headed out to find beautiful things.  It wasn't hard.  These back-lit leaves really glow.  This pic is not manipulated in any way.
The milkweed was ready to fly.  When I was little, we would catch the little seeds and make wishes on them.



And dear Skyler had a wonderful time pouncing on critters and terrorizing the geese at the lake.  I missed a great picture of him bounding into the water and the geese scattering.  I guess I was too busy with the milkweed.
If you are in the Chicago area, I hope you are enjoying the weather this week.  We all know what is going to follow shortly!
