Cattails

On the way back from dropping Joey off at school this morning these cattails caught my attention so I ran over and took some quick pictures. I took several shots and none of them turned out quite like I had hoped but hey, it was -5 degrees when I took them so I didn't spend a lot of time on composition!! :)

I think you did a wonderful job of capturing them! The sunlight sneaking in is perfect.

Thanks for all the nice comments! I have gotten so far behind on everything lately that I haven't had much of a chance to look at everyone's photos or do much commenting this week but I plant to catch up soon! :)

Very nice again. I find (like with the corn fields) cat tails sometimes hard to photograph so they look as good as seen by my eye. I think this softer focus is a good way to shoot them It was pretty darn nippy here too.

[Peggy Sirk]

I love cattails...great shot! Fabulous lighting.

[Robin]

Lovely shot. Great the way you've processed it.

[Yoori]

[Marinade Spatula]
