Location
This was taken at a friends house who is a paralyzed Veteran of the VN war. He needed help that day and I never go anywhere without my camera. We had a light snow the night before and this beauty was sitting in his pampas grass. I cropped it, added an HDR filter, and posted it. I am not really a big fan of post edits, or manipulations, more a purist. But this filter worked so well with this image that I left it. Thanks for the opportunity to share this beauty.Time

Shoot early, and just before sunset. The golden hour is the best lighting for me.
