Metal Prints at Henne Winter Festival XII

Iris and Grass Flumes

I have been learning about light.  It was a factor in both of these images.  The Blueflag Iris grows around the pond at Gorman.  This was a morning shot with the light on the flower and the pond, background, in shade.  It created a coloration that decorators love!

The grass is Eulalia Grass.  We have only a few plants at Gorman.  I think that it is a common landscaping plant.  The seeds and "parachutes" form in early November.  This clump is located such that the sun hits the flumes while the background is in shade.  I used a long lens which causes the background to be blurred.  I love the way the light on the grass makes it jump off the print in a pleasing golden hue.  A must see!
