Took this picture two mornings back. It is empty seed pods of Milkweed plant that were backlit by the rising sun...the sun gave them a look like they were flames flickering...

Hi Gerry
I've noticed You've taken quite a few shots of decaying vegetation in various stages.
This upload has a very apt title, and the way the sunlight has illuminated the leaf will get You many flattering remarks !! .:d

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

Yes, they sure do look like flickering flames, especially the ones in the background. Great composition.

Gorgeous Gerry, I need to have your eye. I swear I walk thru that park and try and find the things you do, and never do.

Title is good, photo is great. I guess it's solar powered. That's good with the price of gas, oil and electricity. Just a good find and awesome rendition. Way to go Gerry!!!!!!!!!

Super job, Mr. P. You're doing a great job of covering the last of the fall scene.

Awesome subject and title. It's very professional looking, not only the composition but the presentation.
