One of my favorite macro subjects is the milkweed pods and seeds yet I rarely see them hear in Florida. I found these out in a field but don't think it is milkweed. Any ideas? I got alot od cool shots. Hope you like

Hello, I like your selective focus here and the lines created by the white portion of the pod. The green leafy area on the right I think detracts a bit from the image. :wavey:

Excellent capture of this seed pod. I find the fibers difficult to capture but you have done a great job showing off the find delicate strands. Well done
