Acorn

The acorns are falling. I found this one alone. Funny that some are black, like this one, and others are green.

Nice find, love how the leaves frame the lone acorn 😊 fav

[Milanie]

Really like your choice of how to compose this shot. Excellent dof and the tones are great against that acorn. Fav

Lovely composition! I've never seen an acorn in person, but a photo is still a special treat! Fav

I like how the acorn is 'framed' by the leaves on the side and front!

Don't think I've ever seen a black one before. Great shot

[Caroline]

This is such a great shot, Gary. It's beautifully composed while keeping the acorn the center of attention. Wonderful bokeh as well.

[Dawn Matthews]

[GaryW]

@rhoing Thank you, Thom!

[Nova]

Gary, I've never seen a black one before and think that it's cool that it is still on the tree. The leaves on our oak tree a very different than the ones you have here and our acorns start out green then turn brown. Very interesting. :)

[Caroline]

Gotta come back and FAV this great photo.

[GaryW]

@novab Thank you Nova! We have several different varieties of oak trees here in the South and their acorns are often very different, some quite large! I thank you so much of your comments!!

[GaryW]

@clake I appreciate that, Caroline!!
