String of Seeds

[best appreciated at full size against black]

Sometimes photographic subjects nearly hit you in the face, and this is an example! I was on a walk with the dogs along our ridge line trail, taking pictures and having a wonderful time. I'd just stood up to continue down the trail when I nearly hit something at eye level. Backing off, this is what I saw! I'm not sure what sort of seeds these are, but I loved the way they were hanging, and their deep, nearly black-rusted-brown color is quite striking.

I've uploaded two other pictures today and I hope you'll visit them too!

Thanks to all of you who have visited and have left comments and favorites! I try to go to all of your pages within a day or two and is a highlight for me to see your beautiful photography! :)

NOTE! I have finally updated my profile and I hope you'll take a look to find out a little more about me and how important all of you are to my experience here on Flickr! Janet's profile (sfhipchick)
