These were growing out of a bed of moss on a rock. I have no idea what they are (possibly the seed stems) but I thought they were interesting.

Beautiful and great dof Wendy!!!!! #1250608Wendy Stevenson April 13, 2005
Thank you so much Colleen, Colette, Cathy, Janet and Charlene for your wonderful comments. I haven't had a chance to use this lense much (waiting around for spring to come) but finally, after two days found something outside I thought was interesting. It's a whole new world with shooting macro and I'm hoping to find many other interesting things:-) Thanks again - these comments are encouraging:-) #1250659S J April 13, 2005

Awesome image I love the colors. #1252753Steve Mescha April 13, 2005
I think it must be plant identification day at BP today. This is a fantastic and unique shot, Wendy. You're basically correct, but I think with moss they are spores rather than seeds. Seems like only certain types of moss do this. Love your shot! #1252832Wendy Stevenson April 14, 2005
A big thanks to Marsha, Noel, Terry, Darren and Steve for stopping by and taking the time to leave these very generous words. They are appreciated. #1253298Roger Bernabo April 14, 2005

Thank you so much Mata and thanks for checking out my gallery:-) #1256538David Whitcher April 15, 2005
Wow, the image gives the feeling of life. It is so detailed and so real! It makes one want to stick their hand and touch the... whatever they are. Great job!!! #1258451Wendy Stevenson April 16, 2005
Thank you so much David. I think Steve was right - they're some kind of spore stem. They do look much better than they feel though as they're only about 1/2 inch high or less and are a little sturdier than you'd think:-) #1258977April Riggs April 16, 2005
