Inversion

Tall Sunflower Inflorescence
I have been experimenting with "inverting" the color images.  This is like making it a color negative.  I provides an image that might be more compatible with current decorating tastes.

Winterberry
This experiment shows the red winterberry berries in bright turquoise.

Grumman 3E TBM Avenger

Grumman 3E TBM Avenger
This plane first saw combat after Pearl Harbor during the Battle of Midway in 1942.  It eventually became one of the best torpedo bombers of the war.  Manufactured by General Motors, it was initially developed for the Navy and Marines but later for naval and air stations around the world.  It flew, heavily modified into the 1960's.

Wild Carrot

Wild Carrot
This shape is not iconic at this time of year in the field.  Please note the seeds on the "table."  The shape of the umbels in the field is contracted into a ball. 

Wild Carrot In The Field
The "ball" holds the seeds inside.  They eventually get out over the winter.

Wild Carrot
Eventually conditions dry out and the "ball" relaxes releasing the seeds.  The seeds would be likely to dry out quicker when encased in the "ball."  Maybe that precludes their rotting on the wet earth.
