This drunk got on an elevator and a lady had passed a little gas. She sprayed with a little can of pine scent refreshment to hide the aroma. I am sure you know what happened next Wendell. It is an old story.
A good look at the pine cone and you didn't have to travel far to get it.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Eye catching shapes, colour and direction, Wendell. My preference would be to crop at least 2/3rds of the needles below the flower, and make it totally uplifting (no pun intended). It'll have more impact because of the greater uniformity of the needles/lighting.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Very nice close-up but keep the pollen up there as I'm allergic down here.

Wendell - I like the composition - a good eye to see and capture it. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.

Another lovely looking photo with great detail and colours.Plus I love how the sun light bounces of the image too.
