Down among the Thistles

Went for another walk along The Pass this evening, swallows swooping overhead,
goldfinches singing in the trees. Although I've been a bit lazy with my PAD of late,
I'm going to make an effort to go for a walk after work as all too soon it will
be dark.

Lovely image - great DOF to create that lazy complimenting background while the anticipation of movement from the seed head is highlighted beautifully.

So beautiful. Has a striking delicacy. ~V~

You've done a couple of these now; you're really getting your backlighting technique down to an art.

The backlighting works to perfection here in this enchanting shot. V

there's a light and airy feel to these wispy seeds...glows with the promise of a summer evening's walk...V

Amazing light on this one. Make the most of the late summer before those leaves turn.

Lovely picture, if only we could keep the sunshine all year round.

Super bit of golden backlight - yes, the clocks change and whoosh - it's all over!
