Description
Many have asked what this is. Well, it's looking right into the end of a limb on a young, long-leaf pine tree. And yes, the needles are wavy like that!... full size view suggested.
Thanks for viewing!
This photo was shot with a Nikon D100, Sigma 70-200, 2.8 lens and an off-brand extension tube. No filters and purely natural, mid-day lighting. Slight color enhancement in PhotoShop Elements.

gorgeous lighting. incredible shapes. I love the undulation of the pine needles as they splay out from the center.

I think it's just a young, long-needle pine...but not really sure to be honest with you.

I don't mean by bad, I would say a better word to use is 'different' ive seen hunderds of close up shots but the flows, textures and colours just make it unique, its a great image!

not sure about the reason for it, but the quality of the image seems to be lost as you look further away from the phocused point; perhaps saturation increase?
I love the curved shapes of the flower, though

I did run the saturation up a bit on the shot. Thanks for the comment! But I have to tell you...it's pine needles, not a flower. LOL! Hmmmm...come to think of it, perhaps it does look a bit like a flower!

I risked flower though I was not really sure about it
you're welcome ^^
