Marvelous shapes! I guess i have never seen these before -- i would have guessed they were man made! :) Shows you how much i know about fir trees! Beautiful shot mate, love the vibrant color!

@dj.tigersprout: Thanks for your comment, DJ. To be honest with you: I do not know much about fir cones myself. I just happen to see them in my mother's backyard and took some shots ;-)
