This is the common thistle bloom that grows wild here in Kentucky. Its beautiful compared to its plant which can inflict alot of pain barefoot.

Hi Scott,
I think thistles are one of my favorite flowers. They produce a nice product: Thistle Seed. Quite a treat for goldfinches... You did a very nice job capturing this one for us to enjoy!
The white in the upper left BG makes it a little busy, but still very nice!
Thanks,
Dave

Excellent DOF and background. Very good colours and detail. A tighter crop excluding the top left corner might have improved this shot.

Nicely done
