This is a bit on the large side. And very closeup.

It is a part of a series I am doing on traditional plants.

A beautiful photograph! I love the use of the green background, it really draws out the purple of the flower. :raven:

Thanks. The green is just the grass around the thistle. The photo was shot from a distance of about 2 inches from the flowers so the background blurs out.

Eoin Dubh - WOW! Eye-popping color. Very nice

Will you be combining these photos with written commentary on the plants?

Blessings, Caritas

Caritas,

That is the plan. Susa does the writing and I do the photos.
