Glistening Cages

            Orange berries inside their seed pods of the wonderful Chinese lanterns (Physalis alkekengi) in our Cheltenham garden after rain.

It's magical how the covering of the pod disintegrates (a tiny bit remains on the left one) to create this magical filigree around the orange seed.
