somehow this seed pod has held onto it's seeds throughout the winter.
They caught my eye shimmerling in the sunshine.
As windy as it's been, I'm sure they couldn't have held on too much longer!

Orange gleams athwart a crimson soul
Lambent flames; purple passion lurks
In your dusk eyes.
Red mouth; flower soft,
Your soul leaps up and flashes
Star-like, white, flame-hot.
Curving arms, encircling a world of love.
You! Stirring the depths of passionate desire!

I have used Shotwell to edit this picture before uploading. How do the levels look to you? A tad dark for me, but the auto setting recommended this.

This time a single seedpod after the previous one with 3 www.flickr.com/photos/tdwrsa/23766169064
Stacked from 9 shots.
Placed on a green underground of which the luminosity was taken away with Lightzone, leaving the darker green as shade.
It has been another spectacular year for the blue wild lupins (Lupinus pilosus) a plant described in my reference book as hairy and erect. The hairiness certainly carries through to the seed pods... so, so tactile.
