Wisteria - A Blessing and a Curse

Wisteria is, IMO, one of the most beautiful weeds in the Southern United States. When it's lavender flowers are at their peak, they can offer a solid wall of color that reaches 30 feet high. The downside is that this plant grows rapidly and can take over a yard, or a copse of trees, eventually choking out and killing the vegetation on which it climbs.

But regardless of all that, 'they sho are purty.'

Yes it's the last and final one for me also, Photography is the process of recording images on sensitized material by the action of light. It takes many of us a long time to realise how important light is, it is usually the difference between a great shot and a shot. Photography is painting with light..tfp :thumbup:
