It is not the first time I take a photo of whatever this may be. It looks like a kind of weed but the question is: what is a weed? Most likely it is everything that doesn't benefit us.
Look how beautiful. It is dead, dehydrated and what comes out are the new seeds. The white looks are so soft. Somehow it reminds me of silk.
I used the macro option of my smartphone to take this photo. I just tried like a blind man because my phone shows more reflection than one can imagine. Although photos made outside look so much better than those taken inside it's not easy if the sun shines. This is a pleasant surprise.
I removed the app PictureThis which and my connection is too slow to download it again. If so I'll add what it might be.
It's milkweed.
The Latin name is Asclepias syriaca, synonyms: Asclepias intermedia, Asclepias kansana.
Milkweed is family of the silkplants.
The flowers can be eaten, they taste sweet. As we know flowers have as much vitamins/minerals/calories as green salad. Next year I'll try them.
Thank you @esciisc for telling me the name.
Milkweed? Wierd but your a great photographer author 👍
