Sunshine’s Macro Monday – Mystery Grass

~ oneletterup ~ 25 Comments

Inspired by Sunshine’s Macro Monday #16…a new challenge I recently discovered.

 

macro grass

 

I have been experimenting with macro photography…and after several walks down the path in the woods behind my home, I was able to capture this shot.

Finally…late afternoon light (of course!) and no breeze.

I’m not sure what type of grass this is, but my guess is it’s cats tail.

Am I right?

This post inspired by V.J.’s Weekly Challenge #51: Green

This was the view outside my home a few days ago.

The color green is everywhere.

Spring time explains it…before the heat of summer dries the grass to a crispy brown.

There is something comforting about blue + yellow.

I chose green as the color for my first bedroom-of-my-own when I was 11 years old. Emerald green carpet. Green diamond patterned wallpaper (which I loved, even though it aggravated the paper hanger). The only green in the house. A marked contrast to my sisters’ purple and pink florals.

The woods I explored. The leafy tree I climbed. The grass I sprawled out on. Looking up…studying cloud formations.

When I was seven…my favorite dress.

My birthstone…

All green.
