These are christmas tree boy parts.
Had four hours in the plant bio lab studying gymnosperms today. And also, Sharon and I went and watched the Secret Life of Pines in the AV suite for fun as well! I like gymnosperms at the moment . . . I think I understand them (not in a spiritual connection kind of way, just in a life cycle kind of way).
Can I take a photo every day for a year? We shall see. Oh, and because it's getting to hard to pick in some cases, you can view my reject Project365 photos on http://www.flickr.com/photos/lumanna

@Davey D: Did you you that gymno is from the latin meaning 'naked'? The same place the word gymnasium is from. And Spermae from the latin 'seed'? Naked seed.
