Sneeze alert, serious pollen in the air. Look if you dare

I was walking by this bush and the wind started picking up the pollen. It was soon everywhere I looked.

All taken with the NEX-3 and a 28mm Minolta.

A bit of a close up

Purdy.

Although I could be wrong, I'm fairly certain those are seeds, not pollen.

Seeds, pollen, your probably right. All makes me sneeze no matter what you call them.

Well spotted and captured - seeds to me too.

Reminds me of a Cottonwood tree? Beautiful if one doesn't inhale! :wink:

Seed storm! I imagine this would be horrible to have to walk through

It's was kind of like snow, if snow itched and made you sneeze.
