AUTMUN'S MORNING LIGHT ORANGE I reached the trailhead soon

I reached the trailhead soon after leaving the house with camera gear in hand and it wasn't long before I started seeing the wildflowers along the lake which included cup plants

These yellow coneflowers were off in the distance some but

It is similar to the North Coast but

I quickly composed the wildflowers of the swamp milkweed and cup plants with the colors of the sunrise and began photographing

Walking through the park on a nice relaxing summer morning while viewing the many different colors of wildflowers
