Pine Cone Pattern

Copyright Jeffrey Foltice

I found an interesting pattern in a pine cone today as I used my macro lens for a close view while on a walk in Holland, Michigan.

    What a fantastic picture. I love how each one looks like a little spaceport step or something else otherworldly.

    Nice and kind of creepy too.

    Great detail! It drew me in right away. I thought it was some type of fungi. Then I read the title.

    Without your description I would have been at a loss to know what it was… At first glance it could be anything; fancy biscuits comes to mind… ;)

    I am always to happy to see one of your posts. This one looks to me like a theater seating of tiny alien creatures.

    If you’d asked us to guess what it was, it would have taken some time. Super shot, and well composed.

    Cool colours and background.

    Once again nature replicating itself. At first glance it looks like the bracket fungus you photographed earlier.

  18. kasmango says :

    Definitely a cool pattern, good eye!
    If you don’t mind me asking, what type of macro lens do you use?
    (I’m shopping for one, I use a nikon camera)
    thanks

    My eye was fooled at first glance. Great close up.

  27. colonialist says :

    I don’t think I’d guess what that is without being told! Really impressive.

  28. sweetmeow says :

    Things you don’t know about pine cones unless you have a macro lens on your camera! Love this shot!

  29. Lindsay Thomas says :

    Wow I had no idea what it was until I read the description! Macro has a way of doing that…

    The photograph is lovely. I think the spiral is the golden ratio, the Fibonacci series:
