    Very interesting and pretty flower. It’s not one I’m familiar with. Wonderful photos!

  2. What a pretty little flower! During the 40+ years I lived in Florida, I don’t recall seeing an arrowhead flower. So, I have to ask – where did you take them?

      I shot this today in a marsh (Emeralda Marsh by Leesburg).
      More info on the arrowheads can be found when you click the link with the leaf. :)
      Cheers, Klaus

    You have the strangest blog and I can never tell if you get my comments. I type into the leave a reply box and it disappears.
    Anyway, I’ve lived in Florida too but don’t recall seeing this flower. Maybe I wasn’t interested in flowers at that time. Beautiful shots. Especially like the first one.

    I really like the lovely bright spot they provide near the water among the weeds – a nice flower that I’m not familiar with!

  9. I don’t think I’ve ever seen these either. All of the shots are your usual greatness (smile), but I think my favorite is the first. I like the tall grass and the non-descript background that could be water or clouds or a mountain even. Kind of leaves you open for whatever mood you want it to be. I choose water. :-)

    I love this. Each photo is exquisite. But I love the first the best. The sky in the background does something wonderful for the whole photo.

    @Dot: LOL!Strange blog, ey? But don’t worry – I gotcha! :)

    The flowers are lovely, but the serious question is what software or plugin you are using for your photo gallery. (Please don’t tell me you hand-coded it yourself!)

    Very pretty Klaus! The top right photo is my fave!

    Each one is perfect! Certainly shows that cropping can do a lot of different things and show a lot of different views of one flower! I love the drama of the far shot, but the close-up shows the details so nicely and has a different beauty. I like the first one best!

  16. Yes, and imported in Europe, we have them in the pond at home, like them very much. the top left photo is super !
