Giant thistle by pamknowler

Giant thistle

Difficult to tell from this photo but the thistle is really huge compared to all the other thistles growing in the hedgerows.

I love this colour but wouldn't wear it even though the poem says "when I am an old woman I shall wear purple!!" - I love that poem by Jenny Joseph.
Great capture, love the color and detail

A wonderful close up. I love purple since I was a small girl and at my age I wear it too :-)

Great shot, lovely detail. I do like purple and I do wear it but only a much deeper/bluer shade, I see the colour of this thistle to be almost pink and that colour I wouldn’t wear.

I don’t like purple as much as I did, no idea why….perhaps it’s because I’m old!! 🤣🤣🤣
