At least I'm learning things. v.

What an interesting seed . The name has to be local. Fine detail and color.

Beautiful warm color and light, and excellent detail on the chinquapin, which I had to look up to figure out just what it was ;-). V.

I hear a voice that sounds like the Chipmunks associated with these cute Chinkypins...love them!! V

Nice light and good to see what they look like. We have a place in Louisiana with that name and I wonder if the tree grows there.

fabulously rich image, and a title to set the heart racing...V
Alan K14-Sep-2013 19:59
There's some very nice detail on this; it's much sharper than I would have expected from such a wide ranging lens. The colours have a lovely warm tone to them.
Terry Sprague14-Sep-2013 19:47
Beautiful tones and superb focus on the open burr revealing that shiny seed. V
Margot W14-Sep-2013 19:13
I like the overall light and the shine on the seed.
