Lake Itasca Beauty

        We went to Itasca State Park and I didn't get as many "interesting" pictures as I had hoped to, but I managed to snap a few;)

                  Here is Itasca lake, the headwaters of the Mississippi river!


As the sun went down I tried to get a picture with depth and color. Even with the best camera on earth, nothing can capture the feeling of standing by the lake watching the sun disappear under the water in furious red and yellow... Something like my next pictures:


The lily pads on Lake Itasca. My little brother said: "Are those what the frogs jump on?" :) 

                                                 



 So long for now, Eli ;)

Are you kidding?! That second picture is...almost beyond words! The colors ARE amazing, and they get the right feeling through I think. ;)
I liked the lily pads a lot. =D
