Fun with cattails
These are from the last snow storm. It was another one of those days where I just wandered around. It's amazing how much detail gets lost in the web conversion.
Thanks for any comments,
Paul

2nd one

These are both great, but that second one KILLS! Looks like a spider.

Yup, second one is a winner.

Yeah, the 2nd one is sweet.

Let's make it a landslide. #2 is a great composition.

"Let's make it a landslide."
Sorry, but I like 'em both.
These types of images remind me of oriental art in their simplicity and shapes.
The backdrop appears to be just a shade greyer in the first. Wonder if brightening it a bit would evoke a 'cleaner' feel?
Regardless, good eye for seeing these!

Second one is great.
