Some seed photo's from my studies at the Edinburgh Botanic Gardens in '92. I had never seen anything like these before, the ones above (8 in the original photo) look like little bats heads, or aliens (Yoda/E.T.), and are responsible for some of my stranger looking artworks. Crappy picture quality, I must get my negatives digitised.
The first thing I thought when I saw the top picture was: Bat seeds! How amazing looking! If you have more images I would love if you shared.
