  1. Just beautiful, Nathalie. Spikey and colourless - it makes me feel cold to look at it.

    Hope you had a great Christmas.

  2. But some things are spikey and colourless to protect the softest of thistledown!

    Such a good image, Nathalie.

  3. Another impressive macro shot. Reminds me of a kitten after a reluctant shampoo

  4. Looks like the thistle did what thistles do. Nice shot of a prehistoric survivor.

  5. What a beautiful shot. It's amazing how when isolated, even the harshest of subjects can reveal such beauty.

    c'est une magnifique photo.

    Ça montre la douceur et la beauté de la bête rude de l'hiver.Cette tension est magnifique.

    merci pour un autre chef d'œuvre.

  7. HA, Richard's description is hilarious. My grandkitty exactly! This is lovely photo. I am thinking I might need to move to macro till things look better around here.

  8. I think I will go out and take some icy photos of Paris... -6 early this morning, still -2. But I will not try the macros. Despite the same camera, I cannot "compete"!

  9. J'ai passé trois jours dans un Paris glacial et cette photo magnifique en l'occurence ne me réchauffe pas du tout...
