And now, something more down to earth than our wonderful moon and Saturn photos tonight!

I saw these next to the building where I go for my exercise class, and I thought they were really fascinating, even though very small.

Hope you agree, and hope you enjoy!

I blew them up a bit bigger for DU since they're small in reality.

You know, like "enlarged to show detail" sort of thing.

They look big enough to be future tumbleweeds!

You did indeed capture the detail.

Or better yet, I'll post a photo!

Don't know their name either.

I just knew I found them fascinating and they were worthy of photographing.
