Sunrise over the Arkansas River

This was taken from the base of the Two Rivers Bridge with my Lumix DC-FZ80 bridge camera. I have the camera set up to always take three exposure bracketed pictures. I then combine them later in Lightroom before processing. It was very pleasant this morning, mild temperature and a breeze. I know the river is extra wide here due to the dam out of sight on the right but looking at this you can believe it is one of the largest rivers in the world. Number 17 to be precise.

5/17/2022 Cactus Pete in Bloom

Cactus Pete is blooming in the backyard again. The first bloom appeared Sunday and two days later there are about a dozen. Pete started as a little cutting several years back that has really come to life in recent years. Pete now occupies a 2′ x 3′ area and this year I laid a brick wall around her to keep her from taking over the back yard.
