Sporangium in an Interesting Swamp - Cades Cove

This swamp is located at the far end of Cade Cove and for the past three weekends another PBase photographer, Richard, and I have been trying to photograph Wood Ducks that seem to have a nest located in the area. They usually fly well before we get into range but this Sunday Dick struck pay dirt. For his fine image of a beautiful Wood Duck, see:

Just superb exposure, Buz! The colors of that glowing moss and the rhizomes is just right. I really like the composition with all the angled limbs. Fine job, my friend!
Thanks for your generous comments on the Wood Ducks. Next time, you get to stalk them! :))
