084.1 - Protea and Sea Holly

Found out the name of the spikey blue flower it is an Eryngium or Blue Sea Holly. I love the Protea petals.

I did crop and tried to tidy up the bottom left corner as there was a bit of skirting board showing, made a bit of a mash of it. No filters or other edits, the colours are just so lovely in the morning light.
