Funny...you call them bullrushes, we call them cattails. They are irresistible aren't they? I like your subdued tones and composition.

We call 'em cat tails too sometimes. :) Out on the west coast I always knew them as bullrushes.
and thanks for the kind words... :)

We call them Bullrushes here ... or just Reeds.

Usually I'm not drawn to photos of them as I find them quite boring and bland.

But this photo works ... the sky is the key here for me. Composition is nice too. Nice shot.

I call them "rietsigaren" which roughly translates as reed sigars. ;) One of the few things I wouldn't smoke though...

I like the angle and the sky. Nice shot. :)

Used the polarizing filter I bought for the wide angle on this one...I think I did it right...had the sun at my side in afternoon when I took it.

Any tips or help if I did anything wrong with the filter here would be most appreciated...thanks. :)

Even better than the 1st shot in my opinion. Again the sky is the key for me, it makes the bushrushes stand out and adds interest.
