The past couple of weeks you have been viewing pre-scheduled posts while my wife and I took a ten day road trip to the hill country of central Texas. The purpose of the trip was to view the wild blue bonnets in bloom this time of year and photograph other interesting things. Spoiler alert, there will be more than one post about this trip. We left our home in Northwest Arkansas on a Monday morning and traveled 417 miles to Hillsboro, Texas. The next morning our adventure began as we drove through Killene, Kerrville, Lampasas, Burnet, Marble Falls, Johnson City and back to Marble Falls to spend the night. Each of these towns are small, unique, and a treat to visit. While in Johnson City we visited a part that provided the best display and easiest to photograph blue bonnets that we would encounter on the entire trip. Here are a few of the images.
What a delightful road trip. I would have enjoyed doing this. I’ve not seen blue bonnets in a very long time.

Like fall colors in New England and here in the Ozarks, being in the right place at the right time is critical.

Driller,
What a beautiful spot to photograph and just look at all those Blue Bonnets? Gorgeous! My favorite picture is the 3rd one from the bottom. That picture says, ‘Paint me!’ Do you hear it calling? 🙂

My wife is partial to the final image. We may have it enlarged to 16×20 and framed.

Driller, the last one is nice, too. I think the reason I like the 3rd from the bottom is how the tree frames the top of the image and you managed to capture some ducks on the water. This is a beautiful place and you did a fabulous job!
