A temporary stream was fed by the rapidly melting snow in the desert below Four Peaks. I was amazed to hear the sound of water and followed it to this caramel-color stream winding it's way though the Sonoran Desert. The water was highlighted by thin threads of black silt as it wound around the desert floor.
First light almost deleted the Fall color of yellow aspen on the slopes above Lockett Meadow in the San Francisco Peaks. This small tank is a favorite stop and often photographed feature of the meadow. Taking a low vantage point and shooting right over the edge of the water makes the tank look like a lake.
