Been on a bit of a leave from Flickr unfortunately. Here are a few interesting plants I have had the opportunity to see and photograph this year.

At the request of the largely
German born population at the time, the Park was named after Baron Freidrich Heinrich Alexander Von Humboldt
(1759-1859), the famous Prussian scientist & explorer,
though Humboldt had only visited the U.S. once
and had never been to Chicago.
Thank you all for your comments and faves!

Woke up at 5am yesterday morning in order to get to a reasonable good spot for a sunrise shoot. It has been a long while since we have made to a sunrise, simply because in the middle of summer the sun gets up way too early for us to even try and get up ;D. It was a lovely morning and we were close enough to get to Devonian Gardens for their early opening for photographers. I will share these shots a little bit later. For now, here is a sunrise on the prairies..

Prairie Plaza provides two benches and three interrpretive signs to help you enjoy the tallgrass prairie at Homestead National Monument of America.
When established in the 1930s, the park made the decision not to preserve John Freeman's farm, but the tallgrass prairie that farm plowed under. That's always struck me as a remarkable decision for the day.

Lot of people think Kansas is flat prairie land. the Flint Hills in Kansas can be really steep and rocky. Here is an area where prescribed burn is taking place.
