    Love the dots - is this the kind with the thorny balls? Very interesting - art straight from the nature!

    Carver: Looks to me like you've captured a sweetgum tree:

    I've twisted my ankle by stepping on those woody, spiny balls that actually have seeds inside. Even worse is to step on one when you are barefoot!

    Great capture. Great comments. People are loving it!

    Lovely contrast of dark on light ... reminds me of today's weather where I live.
