Ornamental Grass

We have several varieties of ornamental grass in our garden. The particular "clump" I am highlighting in this post was itself highlighted rather strongly by the late afternoon sun on a crisp fall day. I found this display lively and colorful. This variety is called Ruby Ribbons switchgrass.

We like our ornamental grasses very much!

Garden Flora

This spring I am finding I quite enjoy going into the garden and taking pictures every day. The garden just beckons, especially in the late afternoon sun.

These are all hand-held with my 60mm macro lens, in natural light.

Pink in the Garden

In this next photo, the powerfully strong sun backlighting caused the lens (and camera) to create a pleasant "lens flare" that appears as sweeping shadow lines in the background in the original out-of-camera capture.
