| Bald Cypress Trunk and Bamboo Reflections, Magnolia Gardens, Charleston, SC © Doug Hickok All Rights Reserved It's not often one sees a Southern cypress swamp surrounded by tall stands of Asian bamboo. Yet this is the case at Magnolia Gardens, where the bamboo was introduced. It is a botanical instance of East meets Deep South. |

Breathtaking Doug. I like the way the reddy browns in the trunk contrast with the greens of the tree. Bravo.

Aha! The house of flying daggers, then?! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors (again) and reflections are superb. Very nice shot !
ReplyDeleteA very creative and elegant way to illustrate a peculiarity of this environment. The single stick of bamboo at the top left is the cherry on top for me - a small detail that makes it clear what the jumbled mass in the background is. All in all, a superb study.
ReplyDeleteJust Beautiful!!The colors are amazing and loved the reflections.
ReplyDeleteGreetings
A fine shot Doug!
ReplyDeleteOne reflection photo I enjoy! Up and down is the same. Attention, not to get lost!
ReplyDeleteI like very much cypress bald. I had the opportunity to photograph it a few years ago in Louisiana and we have a place here, in my region, where we can admire it very beautiful also. I like these surprising roots in reflection in the water
