The OH's lucky day, as he got to eat the prop :)) Shame the weather turned to cold, windy rain.
These pine cones are so huge, you would need both hands to hold one. I was really surprised at how large they were?

Un paesaggio primordiale, dove la terra racconta la sua storia in silenzio. I coni vulcanici di Timanfaya si ergono maestosi, sfumando dal nero profondo al rosso ruggine. Qui, la forza costruttrice del pianeta ha plasmato il paesaggio, sollevando questa terra dalle profondità marine in un’esplosione di fuoco e roccia. Ogni cratere è una cicatrice che parla di creazione e rinascita. L'oceano, complice e spettatore, lambisce il confine, ricordando il suo ruolo in questa epica trasformazione.

The banks of cone brook pill show signs of erosion from the effects of the river Severn that washes in and out every day.
The Cone Nebula, or NGC 2264, is a dark nebula located 2,500 lightyears away in the Monoceros constellation. The nebula is 7 lightyears long and is packed full of dense gas and dust - the ingredients necessary for star formation - making it a perfect stellar factory. This tempestuous deep-sky region contains scorching hot young stars that are eroding and carving out the dark nebula, also emitting blasts of powerful ultraviolet light that can be seen illuminating the edges of the dense cosmic cloud. The NGC 2264 region also contains an open star cluster known as the Christmas Tree Cluster, as it forms a sparkling triangular shape that makes it look rather like a festive fir.
Araucaria columnaris - Cook pine, or New Caledonia pine
I could not see any female cones on this big tree (~30m tall), what grows in the front garden.
Australians use Araucaria pine as a Christmas tree in a pot. When it grows bigger and bigger, they plant it in the yard. So often you can see these grown babies as a huge trees in suburbs.

Pine cones photographed in low level light shot with a 70-300 mm lens. I know this is usually a no no, but I love the way it turned out The sun gave me just the right amount of light to complete the task at hand.
So secretly, like wrongs hushed-up, they went.
They were not ours:
We never heard to which front these were sent.
Nor there if they yet mock what women meant
Who gave them flowers.
Shall they return to beatings of great bells
In wild train-loads?
A few, a few, too few for drums and yells,
May creep back, silent, to still village wells
Up half-known roads.
(The send off, Wilfred Owen)
