Familiar Places

Part of the pleasure of familiar places is watching them change with the passing seasons. I posted an image in June, taken in late winter, of water from the Cedar Springs Dam spillway coursing through the old Las Flores Ranch in Summit Valley (see image below). In late winter, the dried grass along the stream was deep gold, the shrubs were brown, and the buckwheat in the foreground was a seasonal rusty-red. In this recent picture, from mid-summer, the grass and shrubs along the banks are a rich green, and the grass and buckwheat in the foreground are just beginning to turn their respective gold and rust, hinting at the changes which lie ahead in autumn.
