nature's backbone

It is more often referred to as the life blood of the earth, but water takes myriad shapes, sizes and forms.  The intermittent, seasonal stream known as Medano Creek that runs through Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve in southern Colorado definitely has its time and shape, depending on runoff.  The warm, summer day on which I made these images, demonstrated how water can literally and figuratively be a backbone.

Already, ice is changing form and becoming water, which will flow, as is its nature.
