Mississippi is full of natural wonders, and among those wonders are cypress swamps. These swamps are filled with trees, some dating back more than 1,000 years. The cypress trees are unique in the fact that they produce roots known as “knees,” which protrude from the surface of the water. The swamps also provide the perfect habitat for a variety of wildlife, making them prime locations for photography. By far some of the most beautiful sites in the state, a visit to a cypress swamp is a must. Still not convinced? The following photos should do the trick.
