Love those sparkly bits...nice contrast to the prickly looking bits.
:-)

That hand reflector has come up trumps again.

Very cool find, looks like an alien life form.

Incredible lighting Phillip! It almost appears to have veins "popping" through the spiky pod! :)

I think it's a seed head of "Love in the Mist". Lovely sparkles.
