Spike

Lordie me this will not do - a madcap jekyll-and-hyde weekend has meant I am several days behind with gaps to fill as well. I must stop being fussy, hoik my camera out more often (good advice to us all) and catch up pdq. Here is a shot I liked... a dried sea holly head against a white towel in the garden.. I was trying to capture the spikiness in B&W as per last week's challenge.
Forgive me, oh kind and benevolent 365ers while I catch up... above all I know, get too far behind and catching up is harder.... thank you for your kind comments and observations on my recent shots - have a marvellous week Mwah!
This is a real fabstract image! Welcome back!

Fab contrast

Lovely contrast of textures. I'm playing catch up too. I thought of just leaving my missing days blank but then it might end up with me dropping out of 365 all together.

Love the contrast though it was an ordinary thistle.

Those spikes look so sharp and a bit scary. I do like the contrast with the white background.

I love the spikiness and using the towel as a backdrop was inspired - it gives a great texture without being distracting.

Excellent shot, Phil! I love the b&w. It's a great contrast! I love this shot! Fav! :) Take whatever time you need to catch up by all means, as I have gotten way behind myself because of my stupid back. I wish I could have have a transplant of some sort so I wouldn't hurt so much all the time. Wonderful wonderful photo! I'd pay to have a blown up version of this hanging on my wall!

This is so textural and grapic - wonderful composition.
