September end(large view)

Afternoon walk when sun is almost down and the light was gentle I did

a stroll in one of my favorite area in autumn time to see if wild

crocus is bloomed.I saw this thistle looking in light like silk and in

bg was few crocus flowers,the result is this one.Even I saw some

subjects like this hundreds of time always can find something new and

different and surprise is that can be seen details never seen with

naked eyes.A comment from you will be appreciate as always.

Your studies of plants are among the most beautiful I have ever seen and this one is no exception. Wonderful light; wonderful detail.

A very nice result with beautiful lighting, Radu!

 

Beautiful composition and fine detail. Well done.

Hi Radu,

Love the intricate threads and fine detail, and the backdrop colour make it all that bit more special! 

Very well done!

I like the detail of the thistle's silken threads highlighed with the darken blurred background.Well seen Radu

Another exercise in excellence with this intimate shot of the fading plant.The silky hair really stand out against that rich background.Bravo for this choice image.

Salutations amicales-Laurent

Some of our thistles are at this stage, some have still a few blossoms and are attracting many butterflies. We like the way you present this hairy, soft looking seed head of a prickly pest.

Great detail and composition.  Well done. !!!!  AJ

You have such a fine 'eye' for composition, and an equally fine talent for discovering these treasures. This is so beautiful Radu. You must be as sad as me, knowing that soon most of these treasures will be gone. We must enjoy them while we can!
