Peace and tranquility

This was my main destination this afternoon, Forgetmenot Pond, off Elbow Falls Trail (Highway 66), Kananaskis. I had noticed two or three days that had tiny snowflake icons on the weather forecast chart, so thought I'd better get into K-Country while I could drive on dry, clear roads. Takes about 50 minutes to reach this spot, which really isn't too bad. I did notice a few patches of snow just off the road, shortly before I reached this lake, and the path around the lake was somewhat muddy, from melted snow I would guess. Not many people this time, which is so much nicer. A little hazy over the mountains and the sun was in the wrong place (which happens every time I drive out there!), but at least the water was calm enough to create some reflections.

The small bunch of mixed roses that I bought recently have not lasted very long, unfortunately. A good job that I took some photos when I did. Amazingly, enough light came through my window on a gloomy, wet day.

What we miss when we look but don't SEE

The centre of a Hollyhock flower is so delightful! The flower itself was almost black and I found this bright little "light" deep inside.
