Grass seed head against the sun - a photo on Flickriver

Another shot of some of the grass from a field near our house, with the morning sun shining on a heavy dew. The field is mowed often enough that ecological succession doesn't go beyond grasses, but not so often that they can't grow to their full size. (This plant was perhaps 2 ft/.7 meters tall.) I sort of aimed the camera and pushed the button, and here's what came out. I know that the sun really isn't that large, and that there's a blue artifact in the middle left of the photo. Another photo of this type of grass, taken at the same location, on the same day, is here. This photo was used as the background for a display of a Bible verse. See here.

Isn't God a great artist?
