I hate these things!! Black gets them in his fur. We have some very tiny green ones around here..and some bigger dark ones that have a VERY strong smell. Yuck

[m9f9l]

But it's a GREAT photo!!! :-)

@kerristephens @m9f9l Thank you! I saw these when I stopped on the side of the road one day to take photos of some Queen Anne's Lace. I will get around to posting them.

Just spent an hour brushing them out of 2 dogs yesterday. Love the photo--hate the plant. :D

:Lovely shot on large. I used to hate them when I had a little Yorkie who would get covered in them on some walks and they had to be cut out.

[Anne]

Very nice focus - gosh they look prickly

[Pyrrhula]

But the give at least a marvelous pic. Great composition and dof

[Pat Knowles]

Sticky burrs...kids love these though!! Great clarity of the prickles!

[Humphrey Hippo]

They looks so spiky!

[Beth]

Ohh... I remember those things. As a child, I got many tangled in my hair and it had to be cut to free me. Nice capture.

[Helge Erik Storheim]

Beautiful close-up. Great focus and use of DOF

[Valerie]

Great shot...they do look nasty!

[Lisa Pouncy]

They look a bit like teasels. I expect they're pretty sticky xx

[Yvonne]

Or worse, in a fleece sweatshirt!!! GREAT capture, Linda.

[eDorre]

Ouch! But what a great shot! Textures and composition! Prickly fav!

[Pam Hawkes]

Great capture of these burs!

[bkb in the city]

Great shot

[Arthur Loosley]

Nice shot, Linda, I agree with your comment!

[Kd Wallis]

Great clarity!! I am glad we do not have these around here! I would be worried about them getting stuck in my dogs hair!!! About how big are they?

[Linda]

@kdimagery They are really quite small, very painful if one sticks you and hard to untangle from dogs hair.

[tony gig]

Outstanding shot wonderful detail and focus Linda...Fav

[ladyjane]

@pyrrhula Yes, I saw those and commented on them. Fantastic to have so many. I haven't seen any around here, we have a lot of Evening Primrose, which was commonly called buttercups, but they look very different.

[Pyrrhula]
