Tried to see this.

I often stop to admire the sun on grasses, though I'm more likely to be out and about at sunset than sunrise. A bit blown out but it's very tough to expose for a shot pointed at the sun. Still lovely.

I swear that if you look at this just right, it moves. Very subtle optical illusion here, gentle gentle swaying in a whisper of a breeze. The shallow dof, tones, are all perfect. But the most perfect thing here is simply what you saw, what you have shown us. Thank you. 10

for me this could have benefited from a little deeper dof jmo

Good DOF but the color treatment isn't doing it for me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 11:00:41 AM
I like these types of photos. Could have been just a little bit sharper.

doesnt hold much interest
03/14/2009 09:35:05 PM
Not much in focus in this shot. Just the impression of light and golden grass.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 03:52:21 PM
Nice tones. I think more of the plants should have been in focus. little distracted by the blurred background - seems to overpower the few sharp plants/limbs.

Interesting, and unique composition. You took a mundane object, and photographed it really well.
