After getting thoroughly soaked from belly crawling in three inches of water, I was able to get these. Enjoy!

Evan,

These are amazingly beautiful. Each and every one.

I think it was worth getting wet and muddy for shots like these. They belong hanging on a wall in a set.

:)

Thanks eaglssong, I was planning on printing at least the first two and number four. I wasn't able to get to a computer for two days after shooting these and it was killing me!:)

Interesting choices. I love all of them, but #4 just blew me away.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with the rest of us.
