The colors are great, Dan. Who'd have thought a pine cone could be pink! It contrasts so prettily with the spring green of the tree needles. Good eye for a colorful shot. Nice composition too.

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

How totally lovely this is!! Pink Pine Cones...what a beautiful
thing for us to see. I wish you had more photos of this one...I would love to see a cluster of them...Is there a way you can find out what kind of tree this is??

Excellent capture. I have a cypress tree in my back yard that has strange blooms on it and I know how hard they are to get focused. You did a fine job on this one.
