Taken with Olympus E500 digital camera July 4th 2007. Click image for larger view.
I liked the light on this marsh so had to photograph the cottongrass (Eriophorum). The sunlight came seeping trough a small forest that was growing at the outskirts of the marsh. I think cottongrass is a beautiful plant with its fluffy appearance.
This photo was taken at 9PM in the evening so the sun was pretty low. 2 hours later the sun had gone behind the mountains and mist started to appear on the marshes. Check out this photo of the mist. One of my personal favorites

Hi Thomas,
I love cotton grass, there is a large moss that i like to go to for the dragonflies, all the pools and surrounding area are full of it and when the light is right it looks lovely.
Cheers Mark
