Asclepias syriaca seedpod just starting to explode. This pod is from the fat leaved 'Common Milkweed' found in the ditches in Ontario. Seed harvesting tip- remove the seeds the day before they start to fluff out like this. The fuzz is designed to let the seeds disperse in the wind and even a slight breeze can send them floating around. Great for general dispersion around your kitchen and self sowing in your beard. Lighting info: -Sunpak 433d camera right and in front in small homemade softbox for key. -Sunpak 433d camera right and behind in snoot for a rim light. -Triggered with rf602's. -Background lit by key, but was curved to get the gradient on it.
