Sawgrass blowing in the wind by danette

Sawgrass blowing in the wind

At sunset, I went to the Everglades for the vast openness to see what was sure to be a glorious sunset. This photo concentrated only on the wind blowing the sawgrass, with a tint of the orange setting sun in the background. My goal was to submit a photo to the challenge of breaking the rules of motion. Not sure I have done that, but I liked how it turned out.
I like how it turned out too! Cool shot!

@sarabeth_photo Thanks! I guess that's why it's called The Sea of Grass!

@bdb3471 Thank you, Brian. I didn't go there to take photos of the sawgrass and when the wind came up, it definitely caught my attention.

@daisy Thank you! It was fun to experiment and capture something unplanned. Used my knees for a tri-pod.
