it`s the light we owe that we can see and recognize. It`s because of our visual habits, that we concentrate on objects and their effects immediately. Light will be accepted as a natural phenomenon. All what we know about objects depends on comparison. This is true especially for light and colors - where we compare contrasts. by darkness we know what brightness means....
It flew into our living room window this afternoon so while it was regaining it's composure I ran got my camera and clicked off a few.
I took this from the van and so far away that I thought it was a Robin because it looked reddish on the breast. Surprised me when I enlarged it on my desktop!
This is a picture of Pholiota squarrosoides on the South Tract of the Patuxent Research Refuge near Laurel, Maryland.
as I was photographing this branch of Thistles, one of them exploded… probably the warmth of the lights? Did it feel there was too much 'sun' suddenly? LOL
Thousands of flighty feathery seeds, I had to quickly put a bag over it, they went flying off all over!
Thistle is the common name of a group of flowering plants characterised by leaves with sharp prickles on the margins, mostly in the family Asteraceae.
Prickles occur all over the plant – on surfaces such as those of the stem and flat parts of leaves.
These are an adaptation that protects the plant against herbivorous animals, discouraging them from feeding on the plant.
Interesting bit: Carduus is the Latin term for a thistle (hence cardoon, and chardon in French), and Cardonnacum is the Latin word for a place with thistles.
This is believed to be the origin of name of the Burgundy village of Chardonnay, Saône-et-Loire, which in turn is thought to be the home of the famous Chardonnay grape variety.
I wish you all the very best and thanx for all your kind words, time, comments, likes and faves. Very much appreciated.

Tilt experiment. Why are both the top step and the roof in the background sharp but not in between? Hmm hmm ...
This is a new series of photography that I've been thinking to do. It's very different than my usual landscape photos. I'm calling it "The Shallow" series because of it's shallow depth of field & pin point focus that I use. I hope to use these technique to create some sort of modern abstract art like those people hang a series of similar art work on the wall. And Spring is the perfect time to start this series. Hope you'll like it. =)
