Even this invasive weed has beauty. Unless, of course, you have to weed wack an overgrown lawn where the thistle has taken over. (Just returned by Nova Scotia doing just that) Oh well, back to your image. Great background that enhances the spines and flowers. Composition good as well.

Larry: I like the varying stages of the flowers and your overall comp. Nice find superbly captured.>=))>
