That's so pretty. I've never seen Queen Anne's Lace in real life. I don't know that it grows in Colorado.

Beautiful. I don't think I have ever seen one before.

Nice one. I would have never guessed that was Queen Anne's Lace. I see the plants all the time but they just blend into the autumn background. The macro shot really pulls out the detail in the seeds.

Past its prime, yet beautiful.

Heather 12/14/11, 6:05 AM  

I love it! Great shot.

That's interesting - when I first saw it, I thought it was a Christmas ornament!

Happy WW!

I'm like Ed, I thought it was a decoration because it's ball shaped. Great photo!

How beautifully you captured the end of the "Queen's" reign!

Well it is a great photo..
but it reminds me of a giant nest of spiders.
maybe that is just me...

Very nice photo! I want a macro lens from Santa this year ... and a telephoto lens, and a wide angle ... Anyway, great shot as always!

In my yard I thought these were ugly, but in your photo I can see the close-up beauty still remaining. Genius.

It looks like a little flower prison! I love this shot!

It looks like a Christmas tree ornament!

So pretty, so interesting looking. I've only seen it in bloom. I love this shot.

I don't know if I've ever actually noticed Queen Anne's lace in the fall when it's all folded in.

When we lived up north, this stuff was everywhere - in FL none can be found. Interesting shot, I thought it was an ornament at first glance.

Belle Wong 12/14/11, 3:34 PM  

Beautiful! And a lovely reminder of fall on this grey wintry afternoon.

My favorite wildflower! Beautiful even when it is dying.

Jenners 12/14/11, 8:55 PM  

It almost looks like a Christmas ornament!

Jennie 12/14/11, 9:04 PM  

I am such a sucker for macro photography - this is beautiful!

Robin 12/15/11, 10:17 AM  

Nice use of depth of field.

Lovely, and very Christmassy :)

The queen seems to shake her fist at the close of the season.

Dawn @ sheIsTooFondOfBooks 12/17/11, 9:14 AM  

You've had some great fall photos - showing the beauty of nature and when it has "passed its prime."

Michelle 12/17/11, 4:26 PM  

Ok so that looks a little creepy. Kind of like some sort of insect that snaps shut on it's prey. Very interesting.
