Quoting Paul Stenquist pnstenqu...@comcast.net: Maiden Hair grass blooms in October, and the first hard freeze turns the flower heads into lacy delights.

Very unusual (to me). I don't think I've ever see grass flower heards like that. A very attractive image - especially with that dark, contrasting background. -- Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

RE: PESO: The Feminine
I'm glad I looked at your photo for two reasons: First, I didn't know what that was called. We have loads of it around here; now I can give it a name. Second, beautiful photo by you. The light is lovely and you did a great job on the background. Thanks! cheers, frank What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof. -- Christopher Hitchens --- Original Message --- From: Paul Stenquist pnstenqu...@comcast.net Sent: March 16, 2012 3/16/12 To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List pdml@pdml.net Subject: PESO: The Feminine Maiden Hair grass blooms in October, and the first hard freeze turns the flower heads into lacy delights.

Re: PESO: The Feminine
Very lovely, Paul Our ornamental grasses usually keep their heads through the winter, but this year they were trashed by a freak October snowstorm, and they look like weeds.

There is so much of that grass around, you did well to spot such a nicely formed flower head. Thanks Mark. This one's in my garden. I planted one about a dozen years ago. I've divided it a couple of times and now have four. My favorite ornamental grass -- in part for the winter display.
