Natural Fractal - Thistle Flower

Posted by Earnest (Oklahoma, United States) on 9 December 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

I know, it's a weed but it's still beautiful and the butterflies love them.

I hope you enjoyed the viewing... Have a great day!

Not a weed, a wildflower! Since childhood, I've always thought that a good photo of a thistle abloom would be great, but never thought of this perspective. Thank you.

@bfrank: Thanks.

Barbara from Florida, United States

Excellent! It does have a 3D effect like Judit stated. I also agree with bfrank that it is a wildflower. Great dof.

@Barbara: I agree, they're all wildflowers to me too. (But a weed to many others.)

Ming Img from Petaling Jaya, Malaysia

That's a weed? Beautiful weed.. I like the angle you used

@Ming Img: It is beautiful.

Anita from West Nottingham, United States

I like the selective focus, and the colors! I, too, like thistles. If only they didn't spread so quickly.

@Anita: Fortunately they aren't a big problem here except possibly in some over grazed areas.
