Wes and I burned off some parts of the prairie. There were already some beautiful flowers blooming in the healthy parts. In a week or so it will be bursting with color

Photo Play






I played with a couple of the photo's I took in Kansas. Free editing programs can give some interesting results. The top photos are of yucca seeds. The first is as the photo was taken, the second using neon and cropping a bit. The other two are of rocks, but when I applied draw effect one of the rocks looked like a little guy with the top of his head sticking out of the ground. Actually a big guy because these rocks are huge. There was a story at the park that said the early Americans believed there were huge birds at one time and they laid these huge eggs and then flew to the Great Lakes for a drink of water.
