I used some of the Topaz artistic sharpening filters to get this image. It was just too out of focus...But, I still really liked it. These are some kind of old seed pods? An ID would be great. Thanks :wavey: They look like a bunch of brooms tied together to me.

Good image that well represents the theme, Lucy. The spent flowers stand out well from the very nice bg and look sufficiently sharp, even in the large view. The one hanging down adds a lot to the image.

That's quite a cluster of seed heads, Lucy. Your enhanced sharpening has worked well.
