Great eye, similar to another shot in this contest, I wonder if the author is the same...

sexaaaayyyyyyy!!!

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."

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.

@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.

Pretty cool shot...I actually never seen that kind of...plant?

Very well done! have fun on this site! i know i do

That works! GL!

That works! GL!

Well done nice pic and great DOF..........btw the object in the pic is called DATURA and its some sort of poisonous fruit. Details ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datura

NOTE TO SELF... DON'T EAT THE DATURA....

Shame the sky is so washed out - I'd probably crop it - also it looks more pleasing if the horizon isn't in the middle of the pic

Donuts!... Oh my diet...

good shot... tasty food... bad diet....

Good thing I am not a cop!!

Yes! Those ones that we used to stick on letters (now it's things from the past, since we use e-mails... )
