I won't have time to reply to everyone faving and commenting on this, since we will be leaving on a 3 week trip next week.
I will try to catch up with all of you once we are back.
Finding some time for photography during my very busy time. I am working very hard during lock-down period. All work is done remotely from home though.
Back again after few days. I took a few days off because sometimes Flickr is overwhelming and takes a lot of time out of my days. I just post no more than two photos a day because that.
I find Maple (Acer) seed pods more beautiful than the flowers it produces in spring. A maple leaf is on the coat of arms of Canada, and is on the Canadian flag. The maple is a common symbol 🍁 of strength and endurance and has been chosen as the national tree of Canada.
Lavender Pods is an arrangement of pods on a light box. the image was inverted and a filter applied.
As the sun came up the snow and ice began to melt while the first droplet was about to drop with the shining star of the day
Kinderdijk - The Mills
English
Kinderdijk (Dutch pronunciation: [ˌkɪndərˈdɛi̯k]) is a village in the municipality of Molenlanden, in the province of South Holland, Netherlands. It is located about 15 km (9 miles) east of Rotterdam.
Kinderdijk is situated in the Alblasserwaard polder at the confluence of the Lek and Noord rivers. To drain the polder, a system of 19 windmills was built around 1740. This group of mills is the largest concentration of old windmills in the Netherlands. The windmills of Kinderdijk are one of the best-known Dutch tourist sites. They have been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1997.

One of the Yucca seed pods I collected while visiting New Mexico this summer. It looks pretty dried out so I thought it would be perfect for the Macro Monday's theme this week.

BTW: A week of having COVID and I'm so done with it. I dodged the bullet for 3 1/2 years and it finally caught me. I'm still testing positive at Day 8 but at least I'm feeling better, I'll be catching up soonest.
(Liquidambar styraciflua) One dry seed pod of the sweetgum tree. (I can't wait to see the corona virus dead like this pod)
