Two nice views in the peat bog
Both these photos were taken in the Armenveen, part of the Haaksbergerveen, a peat bog near Haaksbergen, The Netherlands.
On the edge of the peat bog:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f8, 1/60s
A view over the peat bog:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 45mm, ISO100, f8, 1/160s
The white stuff you see in the second photo is common cottongrass (Eriophorum angustifolium) aka bog cotton, often found in peat bogs.
I could sit looking at these scenes for hours, if it weren't for the mosquitos. Those dragonflies really should work harder at catching them.
Thanks for watching!
Hi @ocrdu this is my wild iris https://steemit.com/photography/@valtr/wild-yellow-iris-in-park
The wild yellow iris is quite usual in the Czech republic. Nice flower.

First one reminds me painting depicting the death of Ophelia
Are there fish?
No. Well, maybe the odd stickleback that got lost, but these soon perish here.
Too acidic water I guess.
OK. Thanks! :)
