I am always looking for interesting plant life to take photos so when i saw these gum nut cluster I new I wanted to photograph them.

Very Australian, as they come from our eucalyptus trees.

They remind me of the Australian children's book called "Gumnut Babies".

See here Gumnut Babies by May Gibbs and also here Gumnut babies images

Enjoy.....

You really made that shallow depth of field work for you. Nice work.

Very nice macro. I like how you've filled the frame with your subject. Very good detail and focus.
