Description
I took this photo at the Brecon Beacons National Park Visitors Centre, South Wales. I loved the vibrant colour and the detail surrounding it. I don't have a lense for macro shots, I use a point and shoot digital camera which is fairly basic but feel it came out okay.
My first attempt at a flower or plant.
Thanks for your comments and views.

Very beautiful!! Excellent shot!!!
Beautiful rich colors & great detail!
I love the vibrancy of the flower and the pov is wonderful. The focus hits at mid-line on the thistle so my only suggestion would be to raise that focus area closer to the top of the bloom. However, with this current focus you do get a lovely sharp view of the spiky ball beneath the flower and that is exceptional as well.
Thanks for your comments and MrsLubner for advice, much appreciated. I didn't think this picture would be good enough for RR let alone such lovely comments, you have made my day xx
Excellent shot!!!
Maybe something new but came out very well... Lovely Pic xx
very good!
NICE.........
It came out quite nicely! A point and shoot camera sometimes can get as close as 18" to 24" - well enough to see the blossom. It is a very nice image. ;o)
Great for your first attempt!! :)
Great shot! Love the subject and colors. JDoc
