A tiny light it would have to be.
There may be seeds to plant?

the contrast between the coloured 'lantern' and the withered leaves really works, but i do like the withered leaves. such interesting shapes and texture.

goatman: i haven't checked but yes, there should be seeds.

jk: thank you for seeing beyond the obvious

The old and new together - I've tried growing those here but I think it's too wet.

A bloom of color in the grey. Splendid!

polona said...

deli: thank you and feel welcome.

janice: these can be seen in the gardens but i found this one in a forest. i don't really know what kind of conditions they like...

get zapped: thank you. this is in fact seed

Wow. Just like those chinese red paper lanterns. Nature copying man - more likely the opposite?!

jem: humans have taken many shapes and forms from nature, so why not this one?
thank you
