[Kathy]

My understandig of the theme is if it's art to you that's all that matters.

[Taffy]

I love the textures that come out in this -- and the plant's structure.

[Rick]

Interesting plant. Great capture.

@randystreat
Thanks Kathy. I think that is right!!

[bkb in the city]

Very nice shot

[Chris Cook]

Well, the mere fact of taking a photo of something means you "found" it, so really anything goes, including this banksia. This found objects theme is a little confusing but it interesting to see all the different takes on it.

[eDorre]

Neat textures

@cdcook48
