Well, you fix problems quickly, way to go, and this photo is awesome, gorgeous light embracing each hume cattails ? I'm drawing a blank, it's all that darned snow. Anyway, it's glorious!

@Lorraine: I'm not sure what kind of cattail they are either. The computer problem was embarrassingly simple to fix! :0) Thanks for all your comments Lorraine!

Welcome back Craig. A very pretty shot, I really like the beautiful glow from the light around these Teasles, I don't think I've seen quite so many as this in on place before.
