Fog & bulrushes.

A warm spell for the past two days has created some interesting fog. Down by the crick it was even more dense.

Day 56 of 365

Exploding cattail

Yesterday (today in blog terms) was a write-off – shot-wise. Decided to play, so went to see The Hobbit, then off to dinner at a friend’s place.

This, however, was decided yesterday as the shot-of-the-day, so did it this morning in my sleep.This cattail, collected from the last location, reminds me of those exploding fruit shots.

Now for today’s challenge, to be posted tomorrow.

Day 52 of 365

Cattail

Following a new regime of just waiting until a picture presents itself. Not creative in the concept, but in the execution. And, of course, a little Photoshopping to help with the finishing touches.

I don’t rely on Photoshop to perform miracles unless that’s the intent for the get-go. Things work out best when the image is captured right in the first place.

Anyway, at the end of a day with alternating cloud and more cloud, I found myself at the end of a dirt (snow covered) road lined with drainage ditches. Ready to turn for home, the sun broke out for about 10 minutes to light up a row of bulrushes. Amazing how they take the abuse of winter winds and snow and still look like this.
