Description

Some wish to see the Spainish Moss up close and as I was close to the trees at times I took photos of it and this is the best one that came out. I was in a moveing boat going slow. I know we all took photos in moveing cars but a boat is a little more rougher as it is moving over waves you feel and roll side to side too. that why I had it on high ISO and fast shutter speed. I had my 70x250 on and I had to have it on manul to shoot with it. my 18x135 I can put it on auto and auto focus too if I wish. I know that why some of my photos like the last on was a little wash out. I did use photoshop on this one and the last one too. I not sure which lens I had on at the time here. I still learning about this camera and manul. I hear you can tell which way is south by looking on the trees at the spainish moss. i can not here I tried for the moss grows even around a lot of these trees and some time more on the north side of the tree and others on the south side of the trees. I would get lost trying to find my way. It may be true in a lot of areas but you got to look at the water too for that the side the moss will grow on more and over water it will grow around even; at lest in this area. I can got more micros shots from other places with tghe moss in it but I thought this is good one here. may get a backlighted on some Moss on day. i see how this goes.

Somehow, it just doesn't have the same visual impact up close. it looks so fine draped along tree branches, but I'm still glad to have a look at it up close. Thanks for taking the time to show us. : )
