These photo's would make wonderful paintings!
You can probably tell that I altered the first and second images. Can't remember if I did more than crop the third....
Looking for color..yes. and isn't interesting how even muted colors start to stand out against the gray background? I was marveling about the yellow grasses today. They looked exquisite.
"Wherever we look, there's something to see!" a recent first-time visitor to Leelanau commented. But the same is true everywhere, isn't it?
