As I headed out to capture the morning light over some dramatic peaks, the color in the sky began to pop. I immediately started scanning around looking for something that would compliment the clouds and noticed a field of balsamroot in bloom. I didn’t have a lot of time as the sunrise color was going to be quick but these flowers were near peak condition, so set up with them in the foreground. I actually preferred a vertical composition, which I added below, but the format for this blog prefers a horizontal format.
