Description
Not my usual style, but the soft focus along with the soft colors really appealed to me.
This is a little corner of Chicago, a bit of peace and quiet against the backdrop of the third largest city in the United States.
Beauty is everywhere, and sometimes unexpected.

Been looking at Monet paintings again? Gorgeous image. The soft focus works.

Oh, I just love this unexpected glimpse of Chicago shaggies! That's what I call this particular breed of grass. I think it's just you good-old-every-day Prairie Grass, despite the fact that there isn't just one species of that stuff...but at one time, it grew everywhere in these parts, even in the swampy areas. I like the focus of this shot, and the softness. There's a sense of wind in this as well as a lively dance of color! Quite nice!
Sweet shot and the slightly blurred look gives it a wonderful effect!
Very beautiful!!
WOW! You found a very lovely Oasis, Tara :-)
I'd have never suspected this to be in Chicago! Lovely shot, Tara!
It is always nice finding these little bits of nature in the big city. And for as big of a city as Chicago is, there is actually quite a lot natural mixed in. There are parks and nature preserves all over the place and the entire "front yard" of the city is green space snuggled up against one of the great lakes. Prairie and swamp grass, given the chance it frequently doesn't get, will grow like crazy here. The city is built on a swamp after all. Great shot, and I love the dreamy glow.
Ahhhhhhhhh, I remember it well. Mighty pretty...softness is just right.
Really beautiful :)
So very delicate and beautiful. Thank you for sharing this one.
