While I was out today, I took some photos of a broken building and then noticed some feathers, or feathery type growths on a plant. I decided to take a shot with it using a macro lens.
EDIT: Thanks to Gary Schollmeier for telling me these are Wild Clematis seeds.

do you see that little…thing…in the upper right, at about 2 o’clock? It looks like a teeny tiny bug…mini LIFE…and I may be wrong, but I love that bug. Sign me–Horton…:)
It’s like a follicle from one of the feathery things
So pretty, Alastair. 🙂
