purple grass

Posted by ManuelaR (Hainburg, Germany) on 7 December 2006 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.

This purple tinted grass near the lake was so captivating that we stayted there quite a while & tried to capture on camera. Easier said than done! But voilà one of the results.

Lovely image. Nicely framed, Personally I'd crop a little off the top but thats a bit nit picky, and I have no idea what I'm doing myself half the time.

Great get with the completely horizontal leaf!!! Almost like the plant was posing for you or it was giving you some directions. Great work with this the colours are not over done by any means just a nice soft and suttle picture. Relaxing is the word I'm looking for I guess.
