Another quick stop at Blackhills today. Had a girlfriend come along and she pointed out this very large seed pod . I was concentrating on the wildlife and didn't even notice it till she pointed it out. Having my 300mm zoom lens on I was pretty happy with this close up. We walked through the woods following deer trails in think to try and get a closer shot of the heron but all we got was muddy shoes and a lot of scratches from the sticker bushes. Looking forward the a wonderful weekend of great weather.
I've seen a lot of these seed pods around, thinking they would be a great subject... still didn't do it :) Yours is great, love the light on a silky part!
