Look familiar? I like the weave appearance to the “flesh.” I wonder what the specks are. Identity below the fold.

African iris seed pod at 200x. Could the specks be tiny seeds? Because the pod was completely dry, I would think the seeds would have all fallen out. Maybe some got stuck in the tissue of their womb and dried in place. I don’t know.

Actually the seeds may be quite a bit larger, if I remember correctly. So back to the drawing board, in terms of the specks.

Look closer and you may want to look closer still. Does the desire lead to such things as the Large Hadron Collider?
