This is a Goatsbeard gone to seed. I did not do anything in the computer on this image, other than sharpen, small crop from top, and noise reduction. The lighting etc is as shot. I got lucky on this one. The plant was in the sun while the background was in the shade and there was little or no wind. After just a couple of shots, the sun went behind the clouds and the wind picked up. I left and came back later and the wind had blown all but one seed pod off.
