I posted a shot of red Glasswort from this fall a few weeks ago. I don’t know how I missed Glasswort until this autumn. Maybe it is a unique year…a bumper Glasswort crop…or maybe the weather pattern favored a particularly bright red as the green chlorophyll died, but the Glasswort is blazingly (!) obvious, all through the marshes along the Mousam river, this year.
I like the colors here, especially played against the textures, and the shapes formed by the wind and occasional tide flood in the grasses.
Canon SX40HS. Program with iContrast and –1/3EV exposure compensation. 400mm equivalent field of view. f5 @ 1/125th @ ISO 100. Processed in Lightroom for intensity, clarity, and sharpness.
I had to look that one up Stephen. I’ve only seen pictures of it in the green stage.
You can even eat the stuff!
nice shot never seen glasswort and the red is a nice touch in the shot.
