Larry, what you refer to as magenta fringing is the color that comes out in some of the seed heads as they age and dry out. I have another specimen that shows a lot more of the reddish color, because of its location. I do not have an image of it available to me at work, but will check tonight

Thanks for looking and commenting, Larry. Somehow, I felt the empty space was needed. I tried a tighter crop, but it felt wrong to me. What do you mean by "the odd use of color"? Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola On Mon, Oct 16, 2017 at 2:58 AM, Larry Colen
