Dedicated to Fleet.Budgie.... I've been trying to figure out how to look like a pine cone for quite a while now due to a flickr conversation we had. Finally got it! Although unintentional. After our play one night, we went out to eat afterwards and I just wrapped the "insanity" in a band....(the hair that is!) I did not see the results of this until much later. No wonder I had people staring at me!
I was going into Home Depot and noticed that out front they had lots of Christmas decorations that were not sold. Since it is a few days after Christmas no one was interested in them. But the recent snow made the pinecones and boughs look festive to me, so I got my camera and clicked a few frames.
Title says it all...

I picked 3 cones up while out walking and put them in my pocket. Arriving home I put them on the kitchen worktop where lots of black started to emerge. I quickly got rid, and made sure my pockets were clear, consigning the cones to outside.
Giving them a good shake today, I took them indoors to take the photo, and spotted a pretty little blue bug still hiding inside. Needless to say they are back outdoors now.

You won't see these on a tree. They're just the tops of larger pine cones, but I've never seen the whole ones on the ground.

I thought this was an interesting shot of this little bird (not sure what he is called). You can just see his head through his little feet. He would jump out to this pine cone bundle, hang upside down and pick out a seed, then return to the branch to his right. Figured this angle would amuse my father... :-)
My yard is heavily wooded....mostly pine trees, so I have lots of pinecones year round....was playing around with a macro shot I took today....the focus is not the best but still thought the end result was kinda cool.... :-)
