These catkins or lamb's ears always remind me of Christmas time. It is absolutely freezing here but the sun was out this afternoon and they looked so beautiful silhouetted against the sky.
P.S. Just wanted to quickly say I saw your comment - I think that's a brilliant virtual dinner party idea! Will check-in via email again when the workday ends! :)
They're lovely and this is a beautiful shot. When I see these I always think we're about to enter that transition period between dying and growing. A renaissance. Aaahhhhh...
I have never seen those before. They look kind of like catepillars hanging on the tree!

ReplyDeleteLovely Justine - our catkins as winter progresses normally change to a pinkish shade. I really like your bokeh.

ReplyDeleteLike little golden earrings... Love the dappled, golden light that filters through this photo.
ReplyDeleteThat gorgeous golden light you captured actually makes it look as if it could be warm. I know it isn't which makes your photo even more amazing.
ReplyDeleteMy first thoughts were that of Southern Sas. I thought they were caterpillars too. Excellent use of light.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful selective focus and the light is fabulous.
