Dave, that's an excellent poodle portrait. You captured a great expression. I love the yellow coneflowers. It's not a color you often see. Interesting set!

Thanks. She likes having her picture taken.

Anyone know what the thorny weeds are called?

Great flower shots !! I know it's inevitable, so I am waiting for the thistle to go to seed ... gorgeous shots coming of that

Your poodle is so cute and photogenic. Nice job

Great shot of the poodle dave. I like it a lot. All of the flowers are really nice but the last one is my fave.

They are artichoke thistles, an aggressive and invasive non-native species (at least here in California).

Cool. Thanks for the info. I don't know if they are native to Maine or not but they sure are invasive. Pretty but invasive.
