On a rainy afternoon in May, 2003, I drove past a low-lying spot in the road.  As I looked to my right, I saw a large ravine filled with a carpet of Marsh Marigolds.  Stopping the car, I went back and took several shots from the roadside before becoming soaked in the downpour.  Two days later, when I went back in sunlight, all the blossoms had faded and dropped.  I've learned always to get the shot when you see it, because it's seldom there when you return.
