Like Seeds in a Pod

This broom plant always seems to catch the sunlight in the most breathtaking way. The plant is covered in small fine hairs, which make the outline of the stems and leaves glow in the bright sunlight.

When the broom has finished flowering, green seed pods start to grow. This photograph is a shot of one of these small translucent pods with the silhouette of the newly forming seeds inside. Like three seeds in a pod!
