16x20Table Mesa Park, Boulder CO2016-04$400

An early spring day and I had to get out of the studio. I had heard about a park just at the intersection of Table Mesa Drive and Highway 36. This was close to where I grew up in Boulder and at that time this area was a gravel pit. The gravel is gone but the pit is still here. Trash trees line the perimeter of the park and willows fill in the damp areas. I tried to find the most interesting area of the dog park and this was it. I should have captured some people on the trail. The focal point is the the orange doggie-dirt bag that for some reason someone hung on a fence pole.
