We keep going back. Each time it is different. We started by turning into the road going to the Fish Hatchery, below the actual road, We shot wildflowers along the road and what we think is called Tonto Creek Waterfall. Then we drove up to the rim road where we took in some of the vista points before parking at Canyon Woods Lake for our picnic. The weather was perfect. The clouds photogenic.

I cannot describe how happy and excited Doreen was to got so close to a pair of elk. The encounter made her day.
Finally, there is always the trip home. On this occasion we stopped several time. There were great storm clouds to the north and the early golden light was illuminating the hillside.
I am always grateful to have great friends to go with me on photo trips. Doreen's exuberance for the ordinary and Kati and Doreen's gratitude for the miracle of creation we are privileged to capture . . . what a really great day!!
