Composition in Blue and Brown

still winter. . .

still winter. . .

When I was wandering in the local botanical gardens, my eye caught these weird looking things. Sorry, that’s the best way I can describe them at this late hour.  The brown peanut-y shapes and the casted shadows along with the line of snow and the bright skies make for an interesting composition.

Maybe I’m just getting winter-worn.

I am so ready to see a little green popping out of the snow that now looks like everlasting heaps of volcanic ash.

  1. They are ‘wierd’ looking things. The shadows and colors and light are incredible!!!

  2. I concur with Marcie. Weird, but nice.

  3. Those strange things helped make a great composition!

  4. These strange things make an abstract in shape with the contrasting snow and blue sky. Yeah, I know about getting winter-worn, I sympathize. 🙂

  5. Une scuplture végétale pour notre plus grand bonheur !

  6. To my eye, they look not only interesting, but yummy. They look a lot like tamarind pods. And the snow and sky make them look otherworldly.

  7. Yes, still winter but what a fun way to look at it, Bo. I’ve no clue what those things are either, but they’re pretty cool.

  8. This is kind of weird.
