Milkweed pods have grace in any season. Voted earlier; back to comment.

Nice subject matter with interesting details. The image is framed well, too. If I have one criticism I would say that the tone of the image is rather flat. I think it's a white balance issue, leaving the snow gray rather than white because your camera's sensor is trying to find middle gray. If that were corrected I think the snow would have been white and the orange part of the split pods would have popped (no pun intended) and given you a very high scoring image.

This is an elegant portrait of milkweed pods. Those two seem to be smiling at the viewer. I like the delicate background vegetation. The lighting brings an immediate sense of winter.

Milk weed pods are great fun. I could use a bit more brightness for this shot.

Somehow I never perceive the dried flora as death, not even here. The snow adds to the elegance of the shapes

Looks and feel cold! I'd like a bit more brightness, though
