Comment from supergold
I thought it was a pic taken while diving: it looks like a marine plant; very strange indeed; acceptable soft focus;

Very unusual and very cool, the colors and the lighting are fantastic. Great feathery focus with nice detail and clarity. Nice supporting background colors for a fine lift on your buds. I love the light playing through each feathery strand. Thanks for sharing.
