How could I resist? Gail Specht of Northwind and I hiked the Richard Bong State recreational area dressed in orange, not to be mistaken for some delectable plumage. The record heat meant we saw no one save this one fellow trying out his airborn skills.
The lack of frost had the landscape still looking like summer save for a few stands of Sumac rippling the green with burgundy so deep you could drink it and apply adjectives running to "chocolate & berry."
Gail, the real photographer, introduced me to her plastic toy camera Diane and we spent most of our shots (kinder than the hunters in their blinds) on glimmering milkweed that reminds us of the transient nature of all things...and the life cycles which amaze.
