Simple but beautiful. I didn't noticed Catkins could be so beautiful. Nice composition & contrast with the dark green in the distance. I like this picture!
Regzgz, I believe the catkins are the flower of the hazelnut tree. They appear before the leaves come on, so the wind can help them pollinate. The nuts (filberts)are encased in a papery husk and develop from the reddish female catkins (male catkins are green).

ReplyDeleteI like this picture!
I like the perspective. They would also look at home in a butchers shop.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha, garyx, thank you for pointing out that similarity. I hadn't thought of that before, but you're right!
ReplyDeleteI love the symmetry here - really gorgeous shot against the trees, too.
ReplyDeleteVery good shot, are this seeds?
