"You can live years next door to a big pine tree, honored to have so venerable a neighbor, even when it sheds needles all over your flowers or wakes you, dropping big cones onto your deck at still of night."

-Denise Levertov

We have a faux pine tree we keep up year round in our cabin up in the mountains. These golden, miniature pinecones are used to decorate this tree. I think they were passed down from many generations and I was the lucky one who got to have them. My brother and sister weren't interested and I just love them!

A small pinecone fallen onto the edge of the curved corrugated iron roof of the sweetest rotunda in the Adelaide Botanic Gardens.

Liked this abstract take filling the frame as Mrs. Krach and I were hiking around in Wyoming. This was near the top of the tree, so the long lens worked well for this capture.

For some reason, when I sees 'em, I shoots 'em.

Something about pine cones. I don't know why, but when I see 'em, I gotta shoot 'em.
