This evening’s walk brought the magic of color. I’d carried only my smartphone camera, but it captured the color I was seeing.

Light show at the shore

I hurried to the water’s edge when I realized the potential light show I would find. Hiker-dog was excited for another reason and strode proudly into the water for her evening bath.

The places closest to us often surprise and amaze if we’re paying attention. This evening’s painted walk was no exception.
