Sunset through the Moss

The Spanish Moss hangs on all of the trees in my backyard. I think it adds something special to the atmosphere of the trees - it can be romantic or spooky depending on the lighting. I caught a hawk on my way to the car this morning, I tried to creep closer but he flew off.

that moss is sooooo expensive here and you have it growing on trees? amazing!

What a great idea, I like the sharpness of the moss.

Nicely done, Elaine
Guest 01-Mar-2005 23:22
Trippy!

Its not often that the spanish moss becomes the subject of a photograph, rather than a component of one. I like this... the selective DOF just serves to highlight the fine quality of the moss, against the lighting in the background

It looks pretty in this shot. I like the backlighting effect from the sun.

The background makes it - well 'framed', if that's the word!

Nice siloette here.. I like the bit of soft color in the background too. Soft, dreamy feel to this.

A wonderful curtain of moss! Excellent!

Beautiful swirling lines. But it looks like I'll need my machete to get out of here.

Nice image!

This moss does lend great atmosphere to a place. I'll never forget the first time I saw Spanish Moss; I was as wide-eyed and staring as if I were from down there and seeing a snowstorm for the first time. Weird stuff.

Good clear close up with excellent dof Elaine. Good job.

Nice shot and dof.
I feel like I need a haircut :)

It looks as though you're looking through a curtain of moss. Nice job.

Very nice focus, Elaine.

This is really incredible. I also like how it appears it is getting dark there and the moos shot is just so cool, great DoF of course as well.

Neat shot of the moss!

Nice closeup Elaine. The birds robbed my garden for all I had & used it for their nests :>)

I like the focus on the moss. I feel like I'm standing under a tree somewhere..

Nice DOF study. You probably have way more moss around there than you would really like I'll bet!
