Lake Drummond is one of two natural lakes found in Virginia. It is located at the heart of The Great Dismal Swamp. The hike out to this location is six miles from where you park. This is a view along the Western shore, looking North (taken at about 1:15pm). It was a long, long walk.
There's quite a bit of history regarding this magnificent wilderness. Check it out on Wikipedia

I found these grassy plumes while walking in our rural neighborhood this morning. I brought them home to photograph where it's easier to control the light and background.
I lit the plumes with two Yongnuo strobes in 24 inch soft boxes placed on either side. I turned the background blue by placing a blue gel in a hand held strobe and pointing it at a hanging roll of 18 per cent gray paper positioned behind the subject. I then vignetted the blue background using Nik software's Color Efex Pro. The strobes were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603 trigger.
I've photographed a lot of plants and flowers, because they're all around us, work cheap, and never complain. I have an album of these images with over 1000 pictures, and for each one, I have described how I lit them, in case you're interested in that kind of thing.
