Pinecones

Thank you, Lord, for pinecones with their beautiful, earthy-brown whorls.

Pinecones make me happy. Dangling on a tree outdoors or tucked here and there indoors, these pretty gifts from Nature invite close inspection. Who can resist those woody scales arranged just so? Miraculous!

I had some fun with my Lensbaby with Sweet 50 Optic this afternoon. My Lensbaby spends way too much time in its box.

@janeandcharlie @teresamaro @milaniet @dsp2 @lhart @mittens Thank you all so much for your kind comments and favs. I love to add natural elements to my decor, and pinecones are a favorite. I haven't used my Lensbaby in quite a while...I'm hoping to play with it more this year...it takes some getting used to. Thanks again, everyone! :)
