Fatal Beauty?

I came across these pretty flowers in the woods today. I attempted to find out what they were and they appear to be Deadly Nightshade (Belladonna) a poisonous plant that can be lethal!

[Call me Joe]

So unusual and really gorgeous-they look like they're sucking some popsicles--hA:)

Perfectly captured, brilliant colour.

Beautiful colors!

Sounds ominous but beautiful

[HippieChick13]

oooh! Makes me think of Stevie Nicks. Gorgeous!

[Graeme Stevens]

We have Deadly Nightshade in our garden - quite by accident, and once it's there it keeps coming back. Apparently it can be eaten, or part of it, if prepared right, but I'm not going to try it. Great shot too!

Oh dear! I am finding that a lot of beautiful flowers are deadly, lately! I guess they need some way to protect themselves! Beautiful colors - I love that purple and yellow together.

[Suse♡]

Oh how great those colours look together, beautiful!

[Daisy]

Great close up shot and lovely colours

Could be woody nightshade which isn't as fatal! The berries look so inviting when they form, I always pull it up after reading how toxic it is.
