Keep On Shining
I'm going to send you all a bit of sunshine on a gloomy day. Enjoy some more of Florida's fall color (yes, its a bit gloomy here today as well). Over the course of the past few weeks, I visited a local lake to photograph the swamp marigolds in their different stages of show. Each time, they took my breath away, and I also come to understand how important they are to our pollinators. They were always teeming with butterflies and bees. You can see a few of them enjoying the fruits of their labor in the following photos, and you can also see how quickly the color of the yellow flowers fade between the two aerial images below.
Take a few minutes to enjoy Florida's fall colors, and click on each image for a larger view.
Swamp Marigold SunsetSun sets over the Swamp Marigolds that fill the marsh and swamps in the fall here in Florida. This lake is surrounded by the golden colors of the yellow flower, so thick, you are unable to walk through them.
