Simple but it works.

It will be flasked six months from now.

...Or uncropped??

Large view.

It looks so much like scarecrow's head

The frost on the trees was heavy this morning. By early afternoon the light was better, so I shot a few pictures of our Locust tree.

I've just been roaming around the yard today seeing what I could find.

Not ripe yet. It will turn red and split to reveal bright orange seeds.

This has quite a few textures in it, including a fine line of water droplets about a third of the way up on the left, perhaps collected on a hair or fragment of spiderweb.

Seedpods of the up to now still unidentified tree with maroon flowers.

One new green closed seedpod, with 5 segments and one old open 'woody' seedpod with feathery like details in it. If somebody knows which tree this is I'd be very grateful !

This thing is quite large... a few inches... photo is not a macro.
