Nature’s Art #5.

Hi everyone on this rather chilly day in December!  And welcome back to our series on art in nature.  There are so many things found throughout nature that can rightly fit in with real art, yet most people would barely notice these things, or pass them off as something not worth looking at.  But really, they can be very cool objects if we just stop to consider them a bit.  Even the weathered roots of fallen trees can look just amazing as natural works of art.  So, for today we have…IMG_9867

A whorl of 4 red pine cones still on the twig that a squirrel had just cut down.  Barely missed hitting me on the head.20190925_122510

Crown coral fungus certainly fits for cool natural art.  It is really quite amazing to see this particular fungus which comes in different varieties.  Plus, it’s edible.

Well, that’s my selection for today, there’s lots more to come for this series.  I hope you all have a fantastic Friday and God bless!

Daily Pics #25.

Iceland poppy

Good morning to everyone and Happy Friday!  It did get a bit chilly last night for sure.  We got a bit of snow yesterday, enough to make things white again, then that NW wind came along and with it, cold temps.  A good morning for some hot coffee!  Muffin doesn’t agree.  She is presently looking out the window like she does every morning.  But when it gets daylight, then she wants to play.  Instead of watching all the little birds.  Okay, there’s not a lot of little birds to watch, maybe that’s why.  So, playtime it is.  At least I have time to get this out for you to look at and hopefully enjoy.  So, here we go…IMG_5159

Not actually sure what color to call this daylily.  I will leave that up to you to decide.IMG_5127

And a nice lavender poppy to finish off today’s flower pictures.  It’s always such a warm and bright feeling that they give on cloudy or cold winter days.  I hope you have enjoyed them, have a great day and God bless!
