Corsican pine cones photographed under lamplight. They were more fun than usual because of the surprising number of seeds that fell out of them:

Love the first shot. The leaves lok gret with that light. I had some of these years ago. But now I have not seen them for a long time. Love it.

Gorgeous shots. I do not recognize the honesty silliques...have never seen them before. They actually looks like something I would have sewn they are so pretty. The pinecones I know and see all the time. genie

A wonderful collection of studies, I love to take a tiny piece of nature & catch the comples structures, patterns & shades with my camera. It opens your eyes a-new doesn't it!
