Reminds me of that play where the man eating plant talks. Good colors; great focus; nice and clear. Love the purple. Thank you for sharing this. Look forward to more.

Comment from Bernadette Ballarin


Would you just look at the way the pod has it's own protection mechanism with all those thorn like sticks. Isn't nature amazing and each day there is something new to cherish. This is really a lovely shot and one that you have created with ease and composure. Fabulous work.

Comment from nikman


Whatever it is, it certainly looks weird to me! Your full frontal full composition gives us all a great look at it. Focus and exposure are fine but I feel there may be just a tad too much noise in the background. Otherwise, well done!

    Thank you nikman. The photo was taken just at dusk. Those are actually my garden beds (surrounded by rocks) in the background. I appreciate you checking it out.
