Cattails are everyday, but to me, this is not an everyday image of one. It is debatable if this subject fits the Wabi-Sabi concept. I have to say that I really like it, even if I don't think it totally fits the challenge. An 8 and a fave.

Love the white background and the high key treatment. Perfect diagonal composition (I am a sucker for diagonal compositions) and great colour & detail.
