Beautiful :)
Thanks, Jenn!
Loved the bokey effects in the second and penultimate pictures. Awesome capture. Thanks for sharing.
That’s the great thing about shooting through a three-dimensional mass of leaves or grasses…
Your photos give life to these plants, to Nature! Beautiful!
What a lovely thing to say—thank you!
Beautiful shots :-)
Thank you! :-)
Beautiful light well captured!
Can’t go wrong with low evening light… except you have to move fast ;-)
I love low light! Beautiful!
Thanks very much!
Love the close shots
It’s all about differential focus…
Love the light. Very beautiful.
Thank you! :-) :-)
Love that early morning frost on leaves. ;-)
Frost? Not yet, I sincerely hope! But it’s coming…
Love how the sunlight accents all of these shots!
My favorite time of day…
Thanks for following our blog!
Like everyone else, I also love the light in these photos.
:-) :-)
I love all of them, but the third one is my all time favorite, looks like you had a wonderful walk, thanks MJ
I did indeed! Thanks, MJ :-)
Beautiful photographs. Makes me want to go there.
And you can! But of course there’s no need—you’ll find the same beauty at home, if you look carefully…
Yes, of course. I used to host a blog group called ‘Love where you live’ which was all about enjoying being a tourist in your own town. I still like to travel to different places though and New York is one of the places on my list.
:-)
Beautiful.
Thanks, Allyson!
Lovely. I can feel the sunshine just looking at these.
Late afternoon sunshine can’t be beat :-)
Great series, Vlad! Yes, the light on most of these are brilliant. It gives off that warm feeling :)
Golden light…
Felt like a spider was going to jump out at you!
Plenty of creepy crawlies in there, if you look close…
gentle
Yes :-)
Beautiful and delicate photographs, love them.
Makes me happy :-)
Tiny layer of light on grass imitates a subtle fructifiaction
:-)
Thanks for following our blog!
I would prefer to follow you on your kayak, but well…
This way at least you don’t get wet…
Gorgeous series! The light is stunning.
A real compliment, coming from you! :-)
Your blog is the online equivalent of potato chips. I start looking and I have to force myself to stop.
Non-fattening, I hope…
Let’s hear it for dried out plants!
The milkweed pods are maturing nicely this year—just a couple of weeks to go…
nice photography
Thank you!
you’re welcome
I love low light! Wonderful. Orofiorentino from Italy
Thank you!!
Great stuff! A very different view of New York. Cheers.
Yes, most people don’t imagine that it contains this as well…
so beautiful and warm….nice shot :)
Thank you very much :-)
A very nice photos, wonderful Orofiorentino from Italy
Thanks so much!
I just love the tree with the golden leaves and the view of the sky! I take photos of trees and sky too! I am glad you do as well. Your photo is beautiful!
Yes, trees are my specialty :-) Thanks for following our blog!
You’re welcome and thanks for visiting mine!
Love the colours, the light, the glints and hints of more than that which first we see. Waxing lyrical over these photos……..
I like complicated photos for that reason… of course, simple is good too!
monumental light collection
Thanks so much, Scott!
Wonderful – I especially like the second & fourth shots of light through the grasses!
Grasses, swaying in the wind and sun, are always rewarding…
So delicate, up close and personal. I enjoy nature shots and close ups are my favorite. Job well done!
Glad you liked it—thank you!
Beautiful shots Vlad! Love them all.
Thanks so much, Madhu! :-) :-)
