A very late entry for the Smile on Saturday theme of capture the time. Sorry it is not the most creative of shots but ran out of time and ideas!

Another shot of one of the pretty mountain lakes of Macun. It's a rather longish hike, all in all, but I can't wait to go there again.

I almost thought I was seeing double when the second sandhill crane lined up behind the first one.

A pretty similar comp to another shot I've seen in the last few days, but hey ho, you can see my version as well 😊

...to hop this fence!!

HFF! :))

My first double Daffodil of the year and, it being Sunday I played with it - HSS!

Enjoying a nature walk, past a few semi-wooded fields, I came across these two-coloured tulips – so unexpected, so vibrant! Amongst the trees and the various grasses, these red and yellow tulips stuck out like beacons in an otherwise green and untended landscape. I wonder who it was that one day decided to plant those bulbs out there!

Double Arch was formed differently from most of the arches in Arches National Park, an area with the largest concentration of natural arches in the entire world.

Double Arch is what is known as a pothole arch formed by water erosion from above rather than more typical erosion from the side. The larger opening has a span of 148 feet and a height of 104 feet.

There are no guardrails or fences to prevent visitors from exploring directly beneath and through the arches.

Thank you for your comments,
