This is lovely Hilde, looks like a pompom and I love the way it comes out of the frame. Terrific color and clarity and great presentation. Thanks for sharing this, even if it is a thistle ;)
you are right Hilde! very underestimated flower - it is beautiful! Your framing is excellent with the flower ovelapping into it! Wonderful clarity and colour! Patti

How lovely it is when unexpected blessings come into my life to cheer me up and put a smile into my heart. Help me to pass them on, dear Lord. Fay Angus
Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.

"Artsy", superbly coloured and elegant............I like the sliced effect caused by framing which drags the eye into image better......glorious work again
