Frosty Marsh Marigold...
Was a bit chilly this morning. Usually shooting marsh marigolds is a terrible experience...ankle deep in smelly swamp water...but with the cold and the mist fogging/freezing on the lens...this was a tough shoot...


But...

This is worth it!

Cool (pun intended) shot Jim. It was certainly worth the effort.

love it!! The frost just adds so much!! The composition and color saturation are great but the frost is the "icing on the cake"

HI Jim!! This is a really nice shot. I hope you've posted it in the main forum also!! (I haven't gone there yet this morning.) The frost really does take this to the top! I only wish you could have placed the camera just a tad more to the right to better include that frosty fringed curvy leaf and leave out some of the left. Two thumbs up!!! :smile:
