Description
This landscape reveals the beauty of a mid-winter day in Nebraska. Taken late in the afternoon, the photo capitalizes on the amazing light of the golden hour which highlights the native prairie grasses and trees that grow along the banks of Walnut Creek Lake, south of Papillion in Sarpy County. This lake and recreation area is pack-in, pack-out and offers a wide variety of leisure activities. Visitors can enjoy boating and fishing in the 105 acre reservoir which is stocked with catfish, sunfish, bluegill, crappie, and bass. A walking and cycling trail around the lake is complemented with playgrounds and a leash-free dog exercise area. Also available are camping and picnicking areas. This image is also available in Black and White in my Black and White, Trees and Midwest galleries.

Had to look, because it could have been Walnut Creek in Kansas. Love the light and the winter prairie scene.
Nikolyn McDonald replied:
Nope, Nebraska. But really, it could be any creek or lake in the prairies, couldn't it? Thanks for the comment, Barbara.

Beautiful image and lighting... reminds me of what painter Bob Ross would say and stick in most of his paintings, "Happy little trees"... liked and a favorite!

Wow, Nikolyn! This image glows! The colours are so vibrant! And the minimal palette is so effective....golden grasses and grey skies...very effective! L/F
