September 14th, 2010: Milk Thistle 'Adriana' (Silybum marianum) by growin
Hi Mike. I love this shot! Esp. the echo of another thistle in the far background.
Like soldiers standing at attention. I like the leaves with the variegation on them. I saw a large plant like this in Peru but I'm not sure if was the same plant.
When were you in Peru? I bet that was picture taking frenzy!
You always take such great photos!
I didn't take a camera. 2002. Great trip, highly recommend Peru. Amazing plants & Machu Picchu was breathtaking.
Oh how times have changed! I think it was 2002 when I started taking pictures.
Didn't take a camera?! That's just wrong!
