7/14/07 - Golden Grass

Probably not to many's taste, but the colors here intrigued me. I was walking to the water lily pond and passed a field of tall golden grass. I stopped at the edge and aimed toward the rising sun with the lens below the top of the grass and pointed into it. After changing the focus (macro lens) from near to far to check out the view this is one, at about 10 feet distant, that I shot.
A possibly more interesting version is the result of focusing on a single grass seed very close to the (wide open) lens with the reflections from all of the water drops behind it like 100's of round balls - http://www.pbase.com/image/82193315

Exquisite ... stunning ... the only two words that come to mind besides "voted"
