found in my wild garden, taken with Nikon D90
don't know the name of this plant.

Hope that its allowed to clip a photo to show only the important details.

[edit: image updated now it has a natural hat for the Royal Ascot ;) (5 years and 3293 days ago)

I'm guessing you might be new. You're allowed to crop your photos but the guidelines are kind of specific about something being pierced:

"Take a photograph of thorns, prickles or cactus spines which are actually pricking/piercing something or someone."

author says:

oh, sorry I wrote the description too cursory. Yes I'm new and english is not my home language.
It seems not to be possible to delete the photo, so I will take a new one tomorrow that matches the rules.

It is really good that you respond so quick. MODs like that a lot. It says a lot of good about you too. I was told that and it meant a lot to me. I hope you enjoy this site. I have had a lot of fun myself.

Just stick marshmallows on the end of the spines. that will make it in theme.

author says:

@MnMCarta, thx for your positive echo
@jawshoewhah [what a name] good idea with the marshmallows but I'm sorry to say that I've all eaten

the actual image is now updated, no more clipped and has a oak-leaf hat and seems to raise the arms for the winner of the Royal Ascot.
