Super interesting……almost look like fried zucchini chips! Mother Nature creates the most interesting forms doesn’t she?

Stunning, your shots have such immediacy. I feel I’m there up close and personal with that honesty.

What a very nice compliment–thank you, Seonaid.

Ha ha ha , very witty !
When ever I saw this seed pod, I always wonder, what plant it was ?
I think, it is a kind of Radish like flower wasn’t it ?

🙂 So glad you enjoyed the shot. I don’t know what the plant is, but it is very interesting to me in this late stage.

Oh! One of my other blogging friends IDd the plant: it’s a Lunaria annua. 🙂
July 28, 2013 at 12:32 pm
Thank you Lemony – san
Wiki says, it’s in deed in Brassicaceae and because of
its round seed-pod, Latin name Luna = Moon and
American calls Silver money, Chinese calls Money Plant.
It is the exceptional plant, when it’s flowering nobody gave attention,
but when flowers finished and dried-up, it’s stand-out. 😀

It looks like money plant seed pods (Lunaria annua) made of gold.

That’s it! Thank you for the ID, Allen. It did look golden when the sunlight was hitting it, and so I tried to recapture that in my processing.

Potato chips or bacteria … depending on how I look at it. 🙂 Interesting seed pods.
July 28, 2013 at 4:52 am
Both of these suggestions strike me as very amusing. 😀 Allen (New Hampshire Gardner) identified the plant as Lunaria annua. They are from THE garden. 😉 The light flashing and reflecting off of the pods delighted me.

If Triffids had faces…beautiful shots – love how the treatment teases out the plants’ best features.

Oh, nice–Triffids. 🙂 I like that. You always bring such a wonderful perspective. Thank you, Richard.

I have no idea what these are, but, as usual, you make them look wonderful!

Thank you, Carissa. That’s a lovely thing to say.
