Engagement Session at the University of Missouri Campus, Columbia, Missouri

It was a delight getting to know Leticia & Darren. We spent a late afternoon wandering around the University of Missouri campus and downtown Columbia. As you can see in the photos, they are so gentle and sweet to each other. It was a pleasure doing their engagement session. Hope you enjoy!

California Wildflowers, Jackson Area

The hillsides of the Jackson area are ablaze with flowers right now. As you drive a few miles south of Jackson on Hwy 49, first you’ll see the bright colors of Poppies blanketing the hills. From there, I just explored around on a few side roads finding the following: Poppies, Lupines, Blue dicks, Popcorn Flowers, Fiddlenecks, Baby Blue Eyes and many more I don’t know off the top of my head. The most spectacular views are atop the hillsides so be prepared for some steep hikes (if that is your thing) or you can just admire from below. Well worth taking a day and enjoying a piece of California’s beauty.

California Wildflowers, Dave Moore Nature Area

If you’re looking for a gentley winding trail to spend a piece of your day, you should check out Dave Moore Nature Area.  It is a beautiful little trail that wanders its way along the river and through the forest.  Right now, the area is blooming with Buttercups, Baby Blue-eyes, Fivespots, Poppies and other wildflowers.

Directions:
From Eastbound Interstate 80 – Take the Highway 49 exit heading south at the town of Auburn. Continue along Hwy 49 through the towns of Cool and Pilot Hill, approximately a 14 mile drive. The entrance will be 3 miles south of Pilot Hill on the right at the cobblestone wall.

A Portrait of a Spider

I spend a bit of my time in nature…as much as I can so I’m not stuck in the office all day.  ☺  Many of my adventures this time of year take me to checkout California’s wildflowers.  What most people don’t notice are the little creatures that live on the flowers.  I took a moment to catch some of these interesting spiders I found on the flowers I usually photograph.  They are very amazing little creatures…no bigger than the size of a dime.  The curious thing about them is their interest in you.  They will cock their heads and look you in the eyes, trying to figure you out.  Most creatures just scurry away but these little guys truly let you know they are watching you.  Check them out and let me know what you think.
