Gallery: Macro & Close-upPosted December 29, 2014118 views6 comments
The seed-head of many species of leucadendron ( native to South Africa ) bursts open under the influence of fire; I am not sure whether this is one such.

The color combo here is very striking, Ian. Where you've got the seed head in the frame works well. Doesn't look like this one has been burned, yet...

I love the colors and I think that you nailed the composition just right - I can't offer any suggestions for improvement

A simple and striking image, and an example of composition in a macro situation. Beautifully crafted...no nits

Hi Ian,
I like the composition and the colors of your image. There are some interesting sparkles that you were able to capture on the seed head too ...................Jim
