Found these in the grounds of Calke Abbey last summer. Not sure what type of fir cone this is, but it looked different to the normal type I usually see and thought it an interesting subject. Hope you like it too.

Ah, I recognise that. Just a few days ago we had to have a tree the same as this, felled. It was 32 years old and I cried as it went. It was encroaching on the power lines.
It is a cedar.The cut wood smells wonderful and looking at this fine picture makes me think of it - and my deceased tree :)

Great closeup with good colour and detail Ann. It looks like an albino pine cone to me.

Did you see "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers?" Well, all I've got to say, Ann, is don't go to sleep!!

It is a very interesting looking cone, isn't it?

Very interesting shot, and a good one too, I might add. Nice close up, indeed.

Nice shot. Unusual cone indeed, but it makes for a unique picture! Love the color green in this shot also!
