Cypress Swamp Fragment by taffy

Cypress Swamp Fragment

Taken in South Carolina on our spring break travels. It's so gray and rainy here that it's too depressing to photograph. I'm hoping better weather will bring new motivation. The swamp is somewhat of a distant memory but it was interesting tonight to look at images that were more removed for me. I ended up deleting a lot that I had original thought worth keeping. Taken outside Charleston.
I love the Cypress trees “knees”. Wonderful reflections in this shot.

I sure know that feeling re rain and grey. A good time to pull out photographs from a trip or sunnier days. Wonderful textures and reflections here and congrats on being #1 on TT

@jgpittenger Thanks! Just looking at those -- they weren't posted on the weekend so I thought Ross might have skipped this week. Congrats to you as well!

Something very primeval about this shot.

I rather like the dark and gloomy you've captured here Taffy, the division of the shot between reality and reflections gives the shot a very interesting feel.

Wow, this just pops on black. Super image!

Fab reflections I remember the first time I saw some of these and also the trees that have what appears the fine webbing all over them. It stayed with me as it was so different from Maine.

This is a metaphor for my life right now! I like the edit.

great depth and patterns in the reflections with the criss crossing of the different tree elements. Really merits close study to appreciate all that this has to offer. We have the same weather.

What's interesting about this picture is that both parts look like they are growing out of the center. Fascinating reflection!
