Queen Anne's Lace, and some Poison Ivy fruit. Poison Ivy does a good job of making itself unappealing. the Spider's name is Charlotte. She writes messages on her web, but it is in Farsi and I can't read it.

1. autumn flora are interesting
I've been reminded of this recently. Don't you just love the diversity? It doesn't have to be spring. In fact, I almost notice plants more in the autumn. Very nice depictions.

4. Weeds come into their own when stripped bare of
flowers and greenery.

2. These are really nice alfredo!
I too have recently taken photos of Queen Anne's lace, but I didn't know what it was! ;-) I'm not very good at plant identification unless it's a vegetable.

I'm in agreement with Celebration. Autumn photography is so very diverse and interesting . . . wonderful changes happening in nature.

My friend knows Farsi - would you like a translation? ;-)

3. The Queen Anne's Lace is a wild carrot. Pull one up,
bend the root and smell.

5. I like
I like a lot.

Love Charlotte...and not (just) because she's a creepy critter...it's a cool pic.

Love the QAL shots. Great close up. I especially like 2.

6. Thanks. I like #2 also. There was no wind so I was able to get a good shot.
