Maurepas Swamp in the Rain
« on: April 29, 2021, 10:21:27 am »

It's already late spring here in Louisiana and most of the plants have emerged above the dark water.

Thank you francois and degree for your kind comments.
I used a 24-70 Tamron G2 set at 24mm @f8 with a polarizing filter. Since I'm usually in a kayak, bobbing and drifting, the motion dampening of the lens is quite helpful.

I can feel the humidity. Your images revive memories of over 30 years ago of the Louisiana bayous.

Thank you all!
The more I know the swamp the less forbidding it seems.
But no matter how much I'm there the heavy blanket of humidity does not let up.
