Curled by winter.
*****THANK YOU FOR VISITING ANITA'S PHOTOBLOG!*****
I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

great lighting - the grass almost seems to glow. Your pictures have sent me out looking for new things to photograph - I hope my results are as strong as yours!
God bless!

@Chris: Thank you so much for your kind words. Starting this photoblog has sent me out looking for new things to photograph. :--) I think we encourage one another.

Hi Anita, this is really a beautiful close up. Well composed and cropped.

@the lightwriter: Thank you very much.
@eddy: Thanks. Usually it is not curled up, but straight.

Beautiful background colors which helps the grass to really pop.

@Lorie: I actually thought of that as I took the photo!

I like the light and the angle. The grass makes a wonderful shape and the background sets it off very nicely.
