CapturedByGrace > "Colorado Columbine"
My first ever shot of a columbine, taken June 27, 2009. I had never seen a columbine in the mountains before this. Was walking along the road, looked to the left, and saw a group of these growing near some rocks! I had to teeter on a fairly steep embankment to get this shot, but it was worth it! God is an awesome painter of color.
