I've always been intrigued by the pattern on pinecones. I've added a link to an explanation of pinecones and Fibonacci
numbers for those of you who are interested.
Of course, I couldn't resist adding a dash of color to an otherwise brown cone.

This squirrel detached this cone from a tree and came down to retrieve it. Unfortunately a couple of people saw him and approached him with their cell phones, causing him to run while rolling the cone in front of him

Allergies woke me up early and wouldn't let me go back to sleep. Finally I got up and baked the two sourdough loaves I'd set in pans to rise overnight. Normally I would bake them the same day, but we keep the house cool around 20C in the winter so the dough doesn't rise as quickly. I used a loaf in this still life with a cone from a red pine, picked up on one of my walks. My office smells of oats, maple syrup, and sourdough. At least chronic congestion usually doesn't affect my sense of smell.
Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.

These pine cones were on our picnic table during our camping trip to Banff in July. The pink bokeh is from our campfire. The sun was shining through the trees and hitting the pine cones.
This is the wrong tree for these pine cones. And they certainly don't grow like this, but it's how I found them
This little cone is rising up from the ground. It's about 1/2" long and firmly attached to a low hanging pine branch.
