What starts small can quickly spread through the rural countryside, both difficult to manage and uncooperative to handle. The leaves fold upon touch and pods form full of seeds. The pink pom pom flower is attractive to look at but if you touch the prickles on the sides of the stems will protect the plant. What starts out small...........and ends up an enormous problem for both rural and urban countryside, for animals, native fauna and humans.

Soft fuzzy weeds

Sorry about the distracted descriptions. Am watching the aftermath of the Stanley Cup Finals. Go Boston? Poor Canucks.

Our progress on the raised beds has been slow, but successful. We have planted the previous four with seedlings and the 5th just needs compost/manure and a new weed liner along the edges.

I took this picture for Olean police coz they want it for evidence

Something that I saw and liked the look. Had to shoot it.

Taken with the Pentax-M 100mm lens at f2.8. A nice, cheap, oddly small lens.

The town of Weed lives in the shadow of Mt. Shasta. If it ever blows they'll need all the "weed" they can get.

I'm back.

look ma, i'm growin like one of these things

This is the weed Cortaderia selloana, pampas grass, whihc is considered a noxious weed.

But, visually, I think it is beautiful, especially in black and white. I do love the vertical nature of this photo.

Two football fields of weed......lol

I never knew how crazy weeds were till I looked at them through a Macro lens. I think this week will be weed week for me.

weed wacker working along Cole Road

This was crazy weed, I got really stoned and danced with Josh in an abandoned house. I felt like I was just drifting on clouds, but it was probably his touch.

I sold that pipe to Ernie for 15 bucks.

:( RIP Sacajaweeda

1 of 3 in a collection.

Macro shot of a weed in Ashlie's hand.

Photos I took with my best friends in 2006. Each photo had that flower covering our face.

City of Weed, NorCal

An enormous weed plantation somewhere in the Rif mountains.

Close-up of drying weed, I live in Holland where you are allowed a plant or two (I think a maximum of 5 is allowed), without to much trouble (make that no trouble) This was grown in my garden

Taken in a field off Elm St.

Shot with an Olympus E-500.

Fisheye Lens adapter, full zoom.

Half-dead sensor in an old HP point and shoot camera gave some pretty stunning results. A perspective from a dying camera; the beauty of the cycle of manufacture, use, decline, and malfunction.
