Eliza Waters 
Isn’t that lovely!
Thank you, Alys!
Such a sweet tangle!
Thanks, Linda. The backlighting was perfect!
The light is perfect for this, Eliza!
Thank you, Audrey! It definitely caught my eye. 🙂
So very pretty, and the light is exquisite.
Thanks much, Maria!
An excellent title for this photograph!
Thank you, Anne!
From flowery to fluffy feathery. Sunny capture!
Thanks, Alice!
Wonderfully delicate.
MJ
Thank you, MJ. Nature is full of so much beauty.
Autumn decorates itself.
It surely does! 🙂
You captured the autumn sunlight beautifully!
Thank you, Donna. 🙂
I keep meaning to plant clematis again. It hasn’t grown well for me, but those seed heads might tempt me to try again! Do they last in arrangements?
I haven’t tried them in arrangements… I would think that if you got them early, they might last. I think the seeds disperse in late winter winds, so you might try it.
That’s a lovely photo Eliza. You have captured that silky softness well. 😃
Thank you, Cathy! 🙂
Love how the light shines to make beautiful silkiness on that plant.
Thank you, Monika! x
The light makes it glow. So pretty, Eliza!
Thank you, Sandy!
You bet!
The stuff magic is made of!
Truly, thanks Karen!
Beautifully backlit autumn treat! Nice capture, Eliza!
Thank you, Tina! 🧡
Every season holds some attraction. Very nice, Eliza!
Thank you, Belinda, so true!
Delicate and very pretty. I gather it’s the remains of a Clematis – which one? Many Clematis seem to have an attractive afterlife. Sadly I haven’t found that true of C. terniflora, the only one I’ve succeeded in growing.
Thank you, Kris. It is the wild Virgin’s Bower vine that grows throughout our wood edges (C. virginiana).
Love light and texture. Happy Thanksgiving Eliza! 🦃🍁🔥🍾
Thanks, Cindy and the same to you! 🧡
You caught this at just the right time, Eliza. It practically glows!!
Thank you, Debbie. 🙂
Lovely light on the clematis – this is the fuzzy season.
Thanks, Tom. The fluffy seed heads are pretty awesome, esp. a whole field of them. 🙂
Beautiful, love how it sparkles in the sun!🙂
Thank you, S!
There’s something truly magical about late Autumnal light. 🙂
I agree, the angled rays and longer shadows are lovely. 🧡
Great composition Eliza.
Thank you, Susie!
We welcome clematis “clouds” at this time of year.
They are quite beautiful.
Wispy pretty!
Thank you, Barbara!
This is so pretty. 🙂
Thank you, Robin. Do you have wild clematis there?
How beautiful! This is another plant that I have not seen before, so I expect it must be another cooler climate variety. I love the gentle colour. 🙂
Thank you, Joanne. Yes, we have a cold winter here, so quite different from yours. This vine has pretty white flowers in late summer, then makes these lovely, fluffy seed heads which blow away in winter’s winds.
Your further description makes them sound even more beautiful! ❤
When I photographed one of these, not sure if yours is the Virgin’s Bower that I photographed maybe this is named Silver Filigree?, There was a huge growth climbing on some bushes around a brook pond and it was a mass of white, both seeds and frost. They are lovely when flowering and when spent.
Yes, this is Virgin’s Bower (Clematis virginiana), a lovely vine in bloom as well as seed. The shot reminded me of fine crafted silver filigree jewelry. 🙂
How lovely! The sun’s rays bring out all the pretty bits.
Thank you, Dale! 🙂
Pleasure is all mine!
