Cynthia's new figure in wax. I don't know how the seed pods will come through in the bronze but they look very good now.
this is an Ashe magnolia pod, a lovely small endangered southern tree. Its leaves are enormous! They can be a foot wide & 3 feet long; the flowers are often 6" long, white, and smell wonderful. This one lives at my favorite nursery.
Some interesting looking seedpods and remaining red leaves of a shrub in winter.

I like how the Lumix was able to create
the DOF and in the B/W mode added to the "Botanical-ness"
of the subject- a dried seed pod

A stunning purple seed pod, probably of Saraca sp. (Fabaceae), photographed at Darwin Botanic Gardens, Darwin, Australia. Few photos or species descriptions make reference to these brightly coloured seed pods, so if anyone can confirm the genus or identify to species, that would be greatly appreciated. The white spots on the pod appear to be mealy bugs of some sort, which are being attended by Green Tree Ants.
snow is gone (again, and hopefully for good), but nothing alive yet to take pictures of. Hopefully these guys did a good job last Fall, and there will be something growing in the woods soon.
Sterling silver.

Please see my profile for more info.
Dotted discs of sterling silver swing boldly from elegant handformed earwires. The gently curved discs have been oxidized and polished by hand to accentuate the raised texture and to give these earrings a well-worn quality. The discs measure just over 1" in diameter, and these earrings are approximately 1.75" in total length. 38
I've just returned from a trip to Maine & Massachusetts. One of six misc. photos. This photo was taken in Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts, USA on the Bridge of Flowers (July 10, 2016). Poppy is, always, one of my favorites! While I was there, a young man proposed to his girlfriend. Nice place to do so!
Asclepias physocarpa is a shrub in the Milkweed family that is native to South Africa. For obvious reasons, Annie's Annuals in Richmond calls it the "Family Jewels Tree".
No idea what this is or was, but it caught my eye...

I have to say I'm rather proud of this picture. What fun. My
stephanotis floribunda put out a green seedpod this year, and it
hardened and cracked open to reveal these lovely little floaty papery
mini-pods inside. They catch the wind rather easily and I wanted to
document it!

I normally cut these off when the flowers dies off, but didn't get around to it this year ! Lucky for me they are a kind of burnt orange color ;))

Part of a seedpod cluster from a Cicer Milkvetch plant. They will gradually turn from green and fuzzy to black and fuzzy. This species was Introduced from Europe and is becoming an increasingly abundant, aggressive weed. It grows in open woods, pathways, and prairies, and is in bloom July-August. Also known as Wild Lentil. Photographed this along the pathway at Clearwater Park on 4th September.

LOL, interesting only to a botanist, I suspect! However, I wanted it for my Plants of Alberta Set. I have to say I was very surprised to see all these glands (?) on this very tiny Twinflower seedpod. Really quite something when seen in macro size. I shudder at the thought of getting down that low to the ground again when spring eventually arrives : ) Taken at Brown-Lowery Provincial Park, south west of the city.
