Hello Ferran.
Nice close up, with the flowers creating a great organic pattern. Details are sharp and the colours are subtle. Well spotted and well taken.Thanks for sharing.
Best regards Siggi

Creo que no conocía esta especie Ferran. El nombre popular es de los más interesante jeje. Creo que has tenido gran sensibilidad al ver el detalle y la belleza de esas flores en combinación con las espinas, por otra parte diferenciadoras de esta especie. El efecto óptico y cromático muy interesante y desde luego creativo.
Yo nací en un pueblo de Aragón, cerca de Calatayud y en la Ribera del Jalón, entre bonitas montañas, llamado Sabiñán.
Saludos y buena semana:

Bonjour Ferran,
Quel magnifique coussin pour les nonnes! Il est vrai que la sainteté est souvent associé à ce genre de fleurs mauves.
Magnifique tapis de fleurs, il doit mener droit au ciel..
Un grand merci
Anne

Hello Ferran

Dear Ferran,
I was quite intrigued by the shape of the flowers and found on the internet the following:

"You might have difficulty believing that prickly anthyllis or hedgehog broom is a member of the bean family until you see an image of its flowers... I always invite visitors to gently touch the viciously sharp spiny modified leaves. I can never resist the temptation to float my hand on the tips, since it's a bit of an odd tactile sensation..."

Arragon is a very interesting part of your beautiful country!

I very much enjoy your photo of Erinacea Anthyllis: Nature as it is and not spoiled by "photoshopping"!

Kind Regards
Ingrid

Bonjour Ferran,
Un cadrage serré qui fait ressortir un certain graphisme évoquant l'abstraction.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
Gérard

Hallo Ferran
Thanks for sharing this delightful image filled with beautiful flowers in the different stages of the life circle. It is lovely to look at this image where purple is the dominated factor. Kind regards and thanks for sharing.
