Description

Captured from a roadside pullover just as the sun was burning its self out. The glowing grass in the centre of the image, I believe to be quite beautiful. Hope you enjoy.

Thank you all for your most gracious comments regarding yesterdays upload, especially to Leon (Tibetan) who thought he could see 'fishing boats' in the image .

Hope you all have a great Monday.

Regards Nathan

I love this kind of image. I see your glowing blade
but also the thicker grasses on right give the image that extra punch.
Wonderful light.

This to me is a beautiful image,reminded me of my Sentinel and different in it's own right.The colour is one of warmth.
It is even more appealing in the fact it was a spur of the moment one,,somtimes they can yeild fantastic unplanned images,,very nice young man.
