When I think of the "South" I think of Spanish Moss.

Lois! What a perfect heart you have photographed! You should think about entering it on this blog: http://clytie-randomstuff.blogspot.com/2009/03/open-challenge.html

It's just a friendly little challenge. I think the deadline has been changed to April 1st, but post it now. This is SO perfect!

That is a very familiar sight, Lois! It's so nice to know bloggers who are nearby. Happy SWF!

Cool against the blue sky!

Early nest for birds? A sky as blue as the stained glass!
Have a good week end

I've never realized there could be lots of kinds of moss, I think I only see like two kinds here in my place. Anyway, it makes a good photo with the blue sky.

I ahd no idea that was spanish moss. Always learn something blogging as well as seeing a beautiful image.

You did a splendid job of capturing this photo, Lois. I love it! Thank you for your visits and kind comments, Pam

Hilda said...

Ever since you mentioned those bugs, I can never look at Spanish moss the same way again! ;)

angela said...

Are those buds I can see on the tree? We're moving closer to Spring, thank goodness.
Great shot of the moss..I've often wondered what it looked like

Dewdrop said...

Well, that's a depiction of our neck of the woods. Very well captured! Things have been hazy up my way.

Lisa Wilson said...

I guess the moss should be turning green soon!

Carol said...

Beautiful blue sky...that hanging moss looks kind of pretty, but I'm not used to seeing it...

Lois said...

Actually the moss stays that color all year round. Green would be pretty though!

Tanya Breese said...

Perfect for SWF Lois! Have a great weekend :)

Lowell said...

Well, that's a very nice photo of the Tallahassee sky. I don't much like that nasty Spanish Moss, though. Did you know people at first used that as stuffing for bedding...but it's full of bugs so that was a mistake!

Now, all it seems to do is kill the trees around here.

Beautiful!

I just shot my first video of Spanish Moss the other day.

Layrayski said...

The moss is shaped like a heart to me. I like it =)

Clytie said...

Yes! Consider yourself entered in our challenge (Random Stuff)! My sister Beth and I are in the processing of creating a shared blog with more information ... We will post a comment here when it's up and running. I absolutely adore this heart! It's perfect!
