WW- Echinops dead
Well not dead but dreaming. Like other perennials it knows that this too will pass
Cool! Can it be kept for long in its dried form?
ReplyDeleteGosh, I was wondering that very same thing! Very pretty...
ReplyDeleteWonderful shot jams. I love winter shots of dried seedheads.
ReplyDeleteIt still looks pretty. Happy WW!

Wonderful shot. I hope it can be kept dried for a long time, it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGreat pic. Looks a bit jaggy as I USED to be.
ReplyDeleteI remember you identified one of these for one of my shots. This too will pass? Doesn't feel like it up here, 12 inches of snow and counting ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone. The Echinops dill kep dry but the head will be damaged as seeds are lost
ReplyDeleteComposition and exposure are spot on, Jams.
ReplyDeleteIt looks rather like a firework :-)
