Bombarding the net with slightly greasy solar atoms for almost 10 years…
I happened to look out the window while making lunch and noticed that the sun was backlighting what I believe to be a Yellow Foxtail — which is just a common weed of the family Setaria.
I put everything down and grabbed my gear (switching out the 35mm for the 100mm macro) to shoot a few frames. A few minutes after taking the shot the sun disappeared behind clouds not to be seen for the rest of the day and the wind kicked up just for fun.
I’m glad I acted on the impulse and opportunity.
