It's that magical time of year at Echo Ridge. Fires are lit and cabins are warm as the snow starts to fall on the evergreen forests. Hear the ice sing under the setting sun and make a wish upon a shooting star.

Fill the frame alternate for this week. I like the shot, I just think the ornaments were more cheerful.

Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments

Devils Tower glows orange in the remaining sunlight of the day. It's thought that the igneous rock columns were once the core, or plug, of a long extinct volcano that's outer shell has eroded away over millions of years.

Can you zoom in?

 

Not an easy image to process.

Because nature is awesome!

There are no pine trees in this area, which is coastal prairie with some scrub oak. But we have been lugging these pine cones around for what seems like 1000 years as christmas decorations, and now I finally found a good use for them: 120 pictures in 2020 #86 "Pinecones".

Trying out my new camera, bought as a second to my Nikon, much lighter and easier to carry around.

I found this mushroom (I am not sure of the species) under a pine tree, and the pinecone nearby looked lonely, so I moved it so it could pose for a picture.

They look much happier now, no?

She brings me a little gift of pinecones. Thanks, Nathiya.

I see you fallen on the ground

Where you landed without a sound

On the bed of green you lie

Waiting under the deep blue sky

Waiting to feel my hungry finger

Caress your skin and then linger

Opening you without a sound

As you lie upon the ground

along the ground

 

Some would see this and walk on by,

but a photographer can only think of what they can create, what kind of composition can be made with this beauty. There appears to be more than 2 dimensions in this shot, the depth of field gives that illusion. And illusion based on what was real is real.

“Throughout the span of recorded human history, Pinecones have served as a symbolic representation of Human Enlightenment, the Third Eye and the Pineal Gland.”

 

“The number 3 was considered as the perfect number, the number of harmony, wisdom and understanding. ... It was also the number of time – past, present, future; birth, life, death; beginning, middle, end – the number of the divine.”

 

THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIEWS, COMMENTS, FAVES AND INVITES!

I think this is a pinecone, but if not it is a seed pod, so either way it seems to fit the MacroMonday theme this week of "P."

shadows on pinecone, Macro Mondays ~it is all about the shadow

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