Commodity

It's such a commodity, quite plain, not something I ever gave a whole lot of thought, until I saw it in the wild. And I suddenly realised I had never seen it for real and still on the plant, only in plastic bags. Which explains why I was quite stunned: I didn't even recognise it. It's not a spectacular picture, the focus is a bit shifty cause it was quite windy out there and the thing kept moving...
