Kip’s Comments - July 30, 2023

Flowers and Faith

While listening to our church message today during my morning walk, I was also soaking in the blessings we have around us. The prairie at Big Woods Lake has passed its peak for wildflower blossoms, but there was still plenty to see by way of blossoms and insects.

I will share a sampling of the many images recorded today in no particular order. All made with only natural lighting and most with macro equipment.

By the way, the message was outstanding. Good job Chip!
