“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.”

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.

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?

Of pinecones

Whilst on holiday on the Italian island of Ischia I found this beautiful pinecone on the ground. I decided to bring it home as a souvenir and it now sits in a display in my fireplace - a constant reminder of a wonderful holiday.

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."

Upright in a winter's field,

Austere, fruitful.

So proud, pinecone.

i wanted to write about how this photo came to be, since its a bit different than my normal process. a few weeks ago, i found this box filled with probably 100 pinecones in my grandparents basement - with the christmas decorations and such. my first instinct was "photo op." but i had no idea what i could do, conceptually, with a ton of pinecones. so, i went home and googled pinecone symbolism.

 

i learned that the center in our brains that is responsible for the perception of light, among other things, is shaped like and named after the pinecone. was so happy to find that modeling a concept after pinecones wasnt so hard after all.

 

the full version of this is like a million pictures stiched into a panorama (this is already three different photos), and i kind of like it, but i couldnt stand the thought of my sisters face being so lost especially since you can only look at it so big on the computer... even though it kind of payed into the meaning. full shot in comments.

#86 Pinecones

 

Thank you in advance for your views, comments, and faves. They are much appreciated!

I thought I had posted this one but, I had forgotten. (Probably a good thing.) I don't really like this at all...

Weird composition.

Oh well. Enjoy anyways.

Standing in the shade, I happened to look up, More Pine Nuts!

On March 5, 2020 I was visiting my son at King of Prussia, PA. We went to lunch at Broadcasting Square in Wyomissing, PA. Along the building where we were eating I found nature to be budding. I whipped out my IPhone 11 Pro and started to take photo images. I would come back later and take more images with my Canon Rebel. I thought these taken with my IPhone were worth posting first.

From a tree in my front yard that is producing prodigious numbers of pinecones this year.

Thanks for comments and favs :)

 

Things could be worse, you could be a pinecone with fear of heights!? 😬

Ironing out the kinks in a new camera, test roll. Nothing too seriously kinked.

 

Very wide, wider than the Xpan by 4mm, about 21mm equivalent on 35mm. So about 3 Xpan frames stacked vertically. No distortion. Nice.
