Pine Cone Kaleidoscopes

In the short time I've been making kaleidoscope images, I'm already starting to get a feel for what kinds of images will turn into interesting kaleidoscopes. I find myself looking at things, wondering if a particular image of something will work well. So it happened with a pine cone my Mom had collected from somewhere and had sitting on a shelf. She lives in the apartment right above mine, so I went downstairs and grabbed my camera to take a picture. I particularly like how the third image down turned out.
