Truly statuesque! The subdued, warm background really enhances the main focus of the milkweed pod. I especially love the design of the little seeds that remain in the pod. I too, have taken this beauty to grace my desktop! Very well done, and thank you! :)

Gerry, you got a winner here. I don't think I have ever seen a post even close to this subject. And, I love the blurred out background. The colors and clarity are fantastic. This is a keeper.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

amazing. Milkweed is one of my favorite plants, I have several dear things assosiated with it, so just this choice already makes this image me like. But the clarity is good too, and the angle, and the fuzzy background. Everything is way good.
