Photography : Photo Of The Week : #64 03.03.2003
 


This photo was taken in the mountains surrounding Devil's Head State Park in Wisconsin.  I like the fact that it represents both the pine cone in it's formative state, and the needles after they've fallen.

There's not a whole lot more to say.  The sky/landscape wasn't particularly appealing that day.  So I snapped this macro shot while I was waiting for some friends during a hike.

It's unfortunate that the image falls out of focus near the edge of the frame.  I'm pretty sure that's because I was shooting a macro (very limited focus plane), and wasn't squarely on top of the subject.
