Ghost of a Seed Pod Past

Ghosts do exist in nature as old life fades and decays they are in effect ghosts. IMHO
The shots I did of milkweed seed pods, green and open shedding seeds needs two more to complete. The flowers alone (coming up after lunch) and the dried decaying remains of an old pod.
Well here is the decaying pod. My imagination sees it as a figure (tall thin ghost?) with its arms out reaching and a small object being dropped from the left hand.

hand held, center point focus, spot meter, Ring Flash on ETTL in shade in late afternoon

A few changes, like clone the branch that ended nowhere.

B&W conversion in PS, I think I prefer the "almost colorless"
