| Sunset over West Prairie Lutheran of Lincoln County, SD |
Spring is always a fun time to get out with the camera. Even though the rain and temperate weather can often slow you down, they can also provide great opportunities for interesting and dramatic photos. I was able to catch a couple really nice sunsets after rain clouds and the year's first thunderstorm. Also, the birds are coming back to the prairie and a few posed for me in late April, I hope to find more in May. Thanks for checking in and click on an image for a larger file to view.
