Now that cold, wet, dull, grey November has arrived - it's an ideal time to revisit some old files - and evoke memories of summer!

Nikon D800 & Sigma 150mm macro.

Have a great WE, folks!

Lovely dreamy scene! Makes my cold toes feel better. Love the soft yellows and selective focus- a beautiful composition and mood.

Thanks for the link to the larger view - the detail is amazing, right down to the tiny water droplets glistening on the grass stems. The image as a whole is an absolute delight and I think you have captured the essence of summer in this gorgeous frame! I love it.
