Hiked to a lake in the Adirondacks today. 1. Blue. 2. Reading break. 3. Gentian. 4. Red eft.

Photograph looking down at a lake from a rock ledge. Sunlight filters through the water, making it appear almost aquamarine. Forested hills line the far shore. Blue sky is dotted with fluffy white clouds. Photograph of my hand holding up a book in front of another lake view. Photograph of a bundle of purplish blue bottle-shaped flowers of narrow-leaved gentian. Photograph of a small red eft (juvenile salamander) clinging to a damp, mossy, vertical rock face.
