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.
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".
This is my second choice for MM "Knolling"
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments

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.
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.

Trying out my new camera, bought as a second to my Nikon, much lighter and easier to carry around.
120 pictures in 2020 (86) pinecones
might be Strobilurus tenacellus ( Bitterer Kiefern-Zapfenrübling ) seen a few this morning in the New Forest NP
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?

“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!
Macro Monday theme: Anything Goes
I wanted to post this to Macro Monday a few weeks ago, but was out of town on Monday.
Detail of a Ponderosa Pinecone.
Hi Flickr Friends, I'm alive! Thanks for all your well wishes and prayers regarding my sinus surgery last week. :) I'm hanging in there. It hasn't been an easy recovery at all...because of this of course. I'm still sprawled out on the couch and in bed every day. It's a test of my patience YET again but just hoping I feel stronger soon so I can get back outside with my camera. Gosh I miss taking pics so much. Patience, patience...ugh, not a big fan of patience.
This is a pic of a little pinecone from the archives taken sometime last year. I'm drawn to the petal-like shapes. Wishing I had something newer to post. I'm not sure how this will look to you since I processed it on my laptop versus my good monitor.
Hope you're all doing well and thanks again for all your love, support and friendship. I've been missing your beautiful pics.
