I found this intact catkin cluster in my front yard and thought it would fit for last week's weekly challenge of 'Repetition: Repetition of an item, colour or element creates a pattern, and patterns draw the eye in to a photograph...find or create a pattern.'
@kvphoto@theredcamera@jernst1779 Thank you so much. I have a love/hate relationship with pine needles and such. I did recently learn that the name of 'catkins' which helped give me a different perspective to things.
Thank you all so very kindly. I was using my bike tarp as a back drop and the folds of fabric might be the reason for the bending of the shadows.
