Purple Fountain Grass

Would you like to hear about the "one that got away", actually two.
I usually have the camera by my side outside when I have my morning
coffee....not today....an adorable squirrel was studying me from the
top of the roof, almost close enough to touch...no camera.

Went out later and was taking a photo of an oleander blossom....on the
other side was a huge beautiful bee....focused and he flew away. Oh well,
the grass waved in the wind, but at least didn't fly away.

Nikon Coolpix 4500
1/333s f/6.2 at 15.7mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Love the texture and color that you have captured. Placing it on a diagonal really adds to this composition.

This is great -- it looks very much like a feather. The detail is wonderful and I like the composition / crop of it (often for me that means however the wind blew it into the camera frame).

YOu know, you make me feel better about the days I have that are just like that. This is a nice photo too though petesie.

Remember the song with the words "The Answer is Blowing in the Wind". Beautiful.

Ohh i love this one! Maybe the squirrel was meant to go away so we could see this? nicely composed and the colors are great. I wonder if we have any of this around me? hmmmm... i'll be on the search this weekend!
