Acorn Squash Seeds

My wife made stuffed Acorn Squash for dinner. She asked me to cut open the squash and I liked the pattern the seeds made. And so I took a few pictures. As she wasn't wanting to delay cooking the meal I didn't have a lot of time for setup and lighting. HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all my American friends!

Isn't it nice when nature offers us such photographic opportunities?

This is a really great close up. I studied it and then read the title to know what it is. Very interesting.

These make a good macro subject - did you toast the seeds?

Nice macro- I like photographing the seeds in a number of squash. Nature can really produce some lovely patterns! Good shot.

@vignouse - No we didn't. As a matter of fact, I didn't even think about toasting them. They do look like pumpkin seeds.

@olivetreeann - I was surprised by the pattern they were in. My wife usually cuts them open so I have never seen them. I'll have to volunteer when we have them again.
