Impossibly Beautiful

After several days of featureless gray skies the clouds finally parted last evening and a river of sunlight poured through the rain-washed air. I went up to nearby Cairn Park and was stunned by the brilliant blue carpets of Camas Lilies spread luxuriantly in hollows between the mossy rock outcrops.There are times when this landscape is more beautiful than seems possible and photos such as these are but poor approximations of reality.

    Oh thank you! I needed this after a completely uninspiring trip to the dreaded Tillicum Mall this afternoon.

    Stunning indeed!
    Really need to be enlarged to be truly appreciated. I enjoyed exploring the sunshine in the little flowers!

    Thanks for the coffee too! You made my day! Cheers!
