Black and White Everglades Grass.. retouched

I played around with the grass of the everglades to be able to have something of the essence i feel when i see that grass running for miles and miles..

this place breathes Gods Glory in the whispers of this gras.. and I feel compelled to give God the glory.. I hope you enjoy .

The Everglades are a subtropical wetland located in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Florida, comprising the southern half of a large watershed. The system begins near Orlando with the Kissimmee River, which discharges into the vast but shallow Lake Okeechobee. Water leaving the lake in the wet season forms a slow-moving river 60 miles (97 km) wide and over 100 miles (160 km) long, flowing southward across a limestone shelf to Florida Bay at the southern end of the state. The ever-changing Everglades are shaped by water and fire, with frequent flooding in the wet season and drought in the dry season. Environmental activist Marjory Stoneman Douglas popularized the term “River of Grass” to describe the sawgrass marshes, part of a complex system of interdependent ecosystems that include cypress swamps, the estuarine mangrove forests of the Ten Thousand Islands, tropical hardwood hammocks, pine rockland, and the marine environment of Florida Bay.

    No, I haven’t been to the Everglades in years. I used to fishing there occasionally. I lived in Ft. Lauderdale for 19 years and here in PSL now for almost 6. I don’t get south much anymore…or anywhere much for that matter here lately! LOL
