 Backlit Highveld grasses after a long dry winter. The title was "Hoëveld" but disappeared on roll-over :/

PR: Surprised at the placing. Thanks Don for the bling! Some nice 7, 8, 9 and 10's and wonderful comments, thank you all for taking the time to do so.

Being mysterious requires no title. I loved this image. Great use of macro contras to create Beauty.

Thanks Herman! it had a title of "Hoëveld" but that disappeared on roll over... :( I've asked SC to fix it...
Some of my recent entries were taken against the light in winter so they had that typical African Veld brown that I suppose is typical of Amanda's entries but hey, we both like the same scapes. She just lives in one full time :)

Hei, getting to be a PH hog, are we?

Nice. I thought this was Amanda.

Ugly title. [Because there is no title, one reads the image as being named HarveyG. Hehe..]
