Handle With Care
April 1

Another image from our desert trip. I got too close to one of these, with the heel of
my shoe, one day, and it's amazing just how tough these spines are. I was sure glad it
was only my shoe, and not my foot....you would have been able to hear me yell all over
the whole country, when the spines were pulled out, LOL, if I had!

Nikon D100
1/500s f/11.0 at 100.0mm ISO 200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Nice DOF used here. Glad you didn't get spiked!

Or better yet, don't handle them at all. Isn't it amazing how painful they can be?

At fist I thought they were sea urchins :)
Very nice and sharp!
