Natures Hairbrush

I think this is a Pincushion Protea (Leucospermum cordifolium) - it is a wonderful orange colour but I had a play around and liked this edit - I will post an unedited version as well
Happy weekend to all :)

It is a Pincushion protea. I love the treatment you have given it! These beauties grow wild in the area where I live. It's just amazing to see a bush covered in them.
