Description
With a little imagination, the flowing lines of a pair of touching, dried milkweed (Asclepias) pods (follicles), presented here in golden sepia tones on a clear background, suggest a gentle caress between lovers. In the fall and once dry, the pods split open and release the plant's seeds which are carried away on the wind to be deposited elsewhere so they may germinate next year.
