Excellent! Such drama, wonderful light & color. The framing is more than excellent... sets it off perfectly!

This definitely has an autumn feel to it, but I'd have to classify it as early autumn, given that it looks like there are some pretty blossoms still trying to exert themselves in the background. But thistles, they are and so striking in their posture and the way they're placed among the other, smaller bright bursts that accompany them. Of course your timing was impeccable as to the light, and how it strikes your composition in just exactly the right angle, making the whole presentation glow with a captivating brilliance... :)PJ

I think the beauty here is not only the Teasels, but I love the purple tones...how beautiful this brings the little plants out...its just lovely Michael. I saw some of these out in the countryside near where I live just yesterday, and I wanted to bring them home..but wow, talk about stickers on them! Ouch! I am enjoying your postings. Verena

What matters at this precious moment is what has always mattered: the dailiness of life. Everything significant is small and slow.

I promised I'd make it back to your gallery, Michael. I saw this before and loved it. Now's my chance to let you know. :)
