Raindrop Bokeh in the Glittering Meadow

From a sky which appeared cloudless a spring shower falls into the meadow. Plants for which I have no name hold the drops on tiny filaments lining the prong like structures.  In the magic morning light a glittering meadow appears providing a lovely opportunity to capture the glittery drops and the bokeh effect.

If you know what these plants are could you please leave the name in the comments. I wounder if they are a grass or a wildflower as there seemed to be teeny little flowers (maybe) sprouting from the filaments.

Love to ALL!

Nature Photography Lines and Light Magnolia June 17 2015

Nature Photography Lines and Light Magnolia June 17 2015

When I saw Nature was today’s theme I knew I had this covered.  My blog Hike Our Planet is as you may have guessed an ode to Nature.  However, I felt compelled to dash out this morning and capture a Magnolia in the golden hour of light before sunrise (we get two because of the positions of Hot Springs and North Mountains).  Image above was taken in June 2015 and image below was taken in June 2011 about 3 hours apart.

Light reveals and creates lines in the curve of petals slowly opening or the angle of a curling leaf. Light also creates as it finds the gaps between the dense clusters of leaves.  Those highlighted spaces of blue sky, golden light and illuminated leaves create a stained glass ceiling above the Magnolia. Below you will find a slideshow of light and lines in Nature from my previous posts.

I am wrapped in the embrace of Nature’s snow dance as a light breeze swirls softly caressing me. Glittering particles of ice slowly melt in the warmth of the morning sun as I climb higher into the mountains. Winter’s final performamce for 2015 in Hot Springs National Park.
