Day 37 - A Pine 'Tree-o'

I apologize for the possibly corny pun in the title. Sometimes I just can't help myself. The carnival parade passes very close to our house and we considered attending and getting some snapshots of Bonhomme Carnival but decided we didn't want to face the crowds. We settled for a late afternoon walk instead. As we were walking Peg discovered this trio of pine cones up in the tree. I took a few shots. I didn't have my zoom lens so I couldn't get very close. I had to crop and zoom in digitally. We chose this pic for the contrast of colours. The branches in the background almost look like palm trees. Wishful thinking on a cold February afternoon. Stay warm.
