Empty Pod

Gallery: FloraPosted March 10, 201382 views6 comments

The empty seed pod of a Yucca. The prairie has very few of the in your face scenics that just grabs your attention. You must take time to appreciate the subtle shades of brown that make up the color palate for at least half of most years. Also you need to stop and look, listen and feel the beauty of the planes. Thank you for your comments and critiques.

Nicely composed, Richard, with an excellent view of the empty pod. It looks like its going to take a bite out you. I like the oof twin in the bg.

I really like the perspective you chose here and the comp works out great with the opposing tilts of the two pods.

Really like the 'in your face' kinda of approach here the OOF pod placement is really complementing the main pod in a nice way
& looks like you handled a bit of harsh light very nicely
