I'm amazed this hasn't had more comments, it's brilliant in it's seeing. Maybe people just don't drink enough:-)

Nice comp James with that round flower repeating the circle of the thistle! I like the repeating bunches of spikes in the thistle too. CJ

Fascinating angle, making a weed look floral. Nice work. -COAmature

Well done Jock, after all the shots I've had to ping for the subject being more dominant than the pattern you have done a shot where we can see all the subject. Wot makes this work so very well is the way you have lined up the thistle wiv the OOF background thistle making this a definite pattern shot. Great eye mate & thanks for showing us how to take a picy of a whole plant & still be on topic.
You can now consider yerself an honorary Englishman:-)
