Emerald Lake photo hike a little later


I've learned there is only so much you can control. When the hiking schedule came out this week my 6am hike was listed with a start time of 8:15. The light would be different. The crowds would be different, but you never quite know what you will find. The light was perfect on Nymph Lake, striking the pond lilies and making them glow.

Stonecrop was growing through the cracks in some large rocks on our right as we climbed up toward Dream Lake.

A dramatic looking moth posed while eating its breakfast. Looking it up online I found one reference to a Police Car moth - Arctiidie Pericopinae Ghophaela vermiculata. Seems like an appropriate name!

Emerald Lake looks different every time I go. Light, time of day, position. The differences can be so subtle, but each photo tells the story of a different visit. 

Our group at Emerald -Diane, Elva (with Muneca hiding), Betty, Bob, Victoria, Maggie and Steve.
