A very good use of "a weed", I'd say!
Now, with such a fantastic image of it, you need to see if it is also edible!

That Pentax k-5 has always been a stellar performer and married to one of the sharpest lenses ever made by Pentax, still produces superb photography. Many thanks for sharing.

Weed or wild flower, it made a good macro shot. Good focus and a nice smooth background. I wouldn't eat it. Let the deer take care of that.

It is a weed, for sure...found it in my yard last year, pretty little thing, I think it's Praxelis clematidea, which is considered invasive.

I like this shot very much, Todd. A bit alien - a bit mystical. Cool stuff!

Thanks Angky! I will let someone else find out if it is edible...

Thanks Tony! I totally agree with you about the K-5 and the DFA 100 lens.

Thanks Mike! I am with you. The deer can have them.

Thanks Julie! They definitely were spreading before I pulled them out.
