Alexis with blue and cc

Just a few weeks after photographer Mark Luinenburg's spring photo shoot, in late April, the temperatures turned much warmer.   By mid-May, just two weeks after Mark's spring 2023 visit, that was the end of the snow and ice, and suddenly the sanctuary was covered in dandelion flowers—fields of gold and other wildflowers.

Once a year, Home For Life® Animal Sanctuary is covered in yellow flowers—dandelion season!   We look forward to this magical time all year. Photographer Mark Luinenburg made it out again to capture this special season for the sanctuary—the carpets of sunshine signify spring is really here at last after a long, hard winter. As you will see,  some things are worth waiting for— like dandelion photos at Home For Life® Animal Sanctuary from Mark Luinenburg.
