Gulliver's detours

And he gave it for his opinion that, whoever could make two ears of corn or two blades of grass to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind and do more essential service to his country than the whole race of politicians put together. - Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels
Photograph taken of grass (Creeping Soft-Grass [Holcus mollis], if you're asking) in the boggy woodland at Lilliput, Co. Westmeath (at the edge of Lough Ennell), while out walking with my father on Tuesday evening in the footsteps of Doctor Swift, who holidayed here three centuries ago.

Lots of great detail and depth in this photo, and just beautiful glowing colors. Great shot.
