Thistle a little tune...


Thistles like this grow wild in an area known as the Florida Greenway, a 6-mile paved loop through several different types of flora, just 4 miles from our house.

    It is amazing to see how something so simple as a thistle can be emphasized (highlighted?) by photography. Very beautiful colorful photograph. Bravo!

    Beatiful, looks like some fur. I wonder if this could cause allergies.
