This collection of images were taken in a variety of locations and dates, and represent a diversity of adjectives: edible, sharp, soft, weed, cultured, wild, commonplace. Small, large, spherical, linear. Colorful or patterned. As with all the images I take of such things, my goal was to focus on the unique features and try to present the ordinary in a new light.
Some are in black/white, some in color. They are shown in order of oldest to newest, with location and date.

Love the little unidentified seedpods. They have a lot of character.
ReplyDeleteDon't they, though? I don't know how they managed to grab my attention along that wash, as they are pretty small ( <1cm ). But, they remind me of doilies.
ReplyDeleteAbout 30 sec. after I took this photo, I was greeted with an angry, buzzing diamondback about 8 feet away up the trail. Fun times!
