Milkweed seed pods are a lot of fun, Albert. This is a great look at this pair of pods bursting at the same time. The black background really sets off all of the "fluff" and the dof is great.

This is just great as a black and white, especially with the black background. I can almost feel the softness and the symmetrical seeds are very pleasing. Great choice for this weekly challenge.

Excellent B & W Albert. Love the fine detail of the soft seed pods against that dark BG.

Excellent, Albert. The wonderful detail and form of the milkweed stand out beautifully in B&W. Looks a little like a beautiful butterfly. I like this a lot.

Congrats on the WP. Well deserved. I like the symmetrical composition and the fine details offset against the black background.
