Milkweed, and a number of not so recognizable plants, grow on the edge of the field behind my house. These photos were taken in 2009. The lighting conditions enhanced the unique characteristics of each milkweed pod.

Picturesque Pods
What do I love about Fall? Nearly everything: cornstalks crackling in the wind, hues of yellow and orange, cool breezes, cozy sweaters, hot apple cider, tall leather boots, chili, the crunching of leaves during a walk in the woods, pumpkins, nut-gathering squirrels, caramel apples, corn mazes, winter squash, goosebumps, scarecrows, end of garden chow chow, the smell of drying leaves, life in the slower lane, fall harvest, milkweed pod.

Beautiful photo series of fall milkweed pods! I miss milkweek... really, I do. It reminds me of WI. If we have it in SC, I haven't seen it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie. The credit goes to Mother Nature... so many beautiful sights to savor.
ReplyDeleteLove these pics and your list of fall things . . . it's all beginning here . . .
ReplyDeleteI was supposed to be painting the house when I took these photos. I'm easily distracted by nature. Thanks for visiting my blog... and your comment about my pod pics...
ReplyDeleteThat gives me a great idea for a motif I've been trying to figure out for a painting I'm doing! Thanks!
