Ready for take off

Tuesday 9th August - Day 234

I note that summer has returned once more. Things are a lot warmer, I am a lot redder:)

I noticed these thistely seedy things blowing around in what breeze there was , and was fascinated by them.

Great shot, selective focus and DOF.

I really like the detail here ... the DOF is wonderful and the light on these fronds is beautiful!

Wonderfully fluffy shot.

Don't you just love PaDing? It makes you look at things you'd never stop to notice before. I can't imagine life without a PaD...maybe I just need to get a life? LOL

Wonderful shot, Lee. Very well composed.

This is so soft looking and gives the feel of late summer. Very nice.
Guest 09-Aug-2005 20:55
For some reason, it makes me think of blonde hair and barbie dolls. :) Lovely image.
Guest 09-Aug-2005 20:39

Good dof and they do look like they are blowing around in the breezw. Unusual.

Exquisite. One of your best "artsy" ones. I like the bovine, too.
