While hiking with my partner in the Snowmass Wilderness two summers ago, I was hoping to get some pictures of Rocky Mountain Columbine, but I noticed many of the columbine had already had their season. I was just about to give in to the fact, that I would have to get columbine pictures on another camping trip, when I noticed a brilliant cluster of columbine in, of all places, a little corner of the parking lot! I felt like God had just said, “My beauty can be found in the most unlikely of places, just open your eyes and you will find me!”
