Powell Gardens at Kingsville, Missouri – As evening approaches the setting sun skims over the surface of water plants. The day's wind gives way to a moment of calm as the water becomes a chrome-like mirror.

Studying Each Other

Lyon County, Kansas – As we watched each other she starting stamping one foot. Was it a warning or an invitation to dance? I'll never know, she retreated into the woods soon after this shot.

Alert in the Woods

It's always a gift to get close to these elusive animals. They bound for safety at the least provocation, so trying to photograph them is a fragile undertaking. I hid behind a small tree and stayed very quiet until this young deer passed close by. Moments after this photo we found ourselves eyeball-to-eyeball and it began stamping one foot. Once it realized I wasn't intimidated it lept deeper into the woods for safety.
