I love those grassy bands of color...
Mary MacADNski: I am attracted to grasses and ferns, and simple plants as well as the bright flowers.

Yup...this definitely works for me.

Even the singer...one of the best, and I was lucky enough to see her perform live in Australia many years ago. I might have been tempted to use her incomparable "Lowlands" for this picture...
Mary MacADNski: I just checked and don't have "Lowlands." How wonderful it would have been to see Odetta!
Great shot of the long grass blowing in the wind Mary....also your choice of song to accompany it....petersmile
Mary MacADNski: The song is one of my favorites and I have many versions. Thanks, P...
A lovely scene Mary!
Mary MacADNski: I love grasses.

This might be Foxtail grass Mary
Mary MacADNski: Could be, I'm sure.
I am finally back online!!
What a gorgeous DOF you got here!!!
Mary MacADNski: Secretly, this is not he best shot but from the week I want to show and grass is the subject.
I have difficulty focussing here...
Mary MacADNski: The focus is on the grass, Chantal.
There is an elegance to grasses, especially when they sway in a gentle breeze
Mary MacADNski: It can be like watching the sea.
very nice....
I can feel the wind and smell the air......
Mary MacADNski: Fresh and clean.
I do like the countryside where you live Mary.
Mary MacADNski: It is lush this year with all the rain and lack of sun.
Ready to scatter this year's seeds by the look of them!
Mary MacADNski: It is certainly a very early variety.

You always have those beautiful views.
Love the foreground too, great choice of focus here.
Mary MacADNski: The grasses made me think of Ray. I got a shot where the background is in focus but the grasses didn't pop out that way.

Are you and Tiff in colusion?
Mary MacADNski: He colluded much more successfully than I. I have been a bit absent. I'm not sure if it's minded.
