These are all macro shots of seed pods. I have taken these in black and white as this is a study of shape and I felt that colour shot would distract from that. I loved the flower like shapes that can be seen now in autumn. They are shot using natural light.

Great study indeed!!! The bw woked out great! I think you are right: should it be in color the shapes would be less obvious... just one thing: maybe if the background was a solid color, it would be even more easy to look at the shapes only. But i love the idea and the way you presented it. the pictures are amazing!!! Very well done!!

thank you kindly for sharing

Nice collection and well presented. The b&w treatment really brings out the textures and gives an added focus to the shapes in each box. Great use of the light in each piece - wonderful composition.
Thanks for sharing

It's wonderful, Karan, what a nice idea to show all these autumn-fruits in one collage.
I like it very much with the white/black BG.
Thanks and greetings

Very well done study. Collage is nice medium.

Using B&W has concentrated the eye not only on the shapes but the texture of the seed pods as well. A great collage and presented really well.

Hello Karan ,
Very nice collage composition for this seed pods. The choice of B&W is a very good idea for your study of shape and texture.
Only a little thing , in my opinion I think it would be better if the backgrounds were in the same colours or two colours in the same proportion or like a chest board ,for instance. Any way your work is great!! and I like a lot your idea.
Best wishes
Angeles

Another great composition, Karan!
I love it.
Ciao
Gigi
