After leaving the picture up to look at off and on for 10 minutes, I figured out why I like it. There is a nice symmetry of prickels, with one cactus almost in the centre. The larger one to right leads my eyes to the small (baby?) leaning in to get into the view.
Very nice effect, once you let it all sink in.

Prickly Okay, I have a confession to make, the last three years I haven't been doing much photography. Three years ago I did none for that year. The last two, at least I've done some. Mostly with a friend on day trips. And mostly they are mediocre because I don't do my best photography with others. I get more into it alone. So, no, I haven't been trying very hard and I haven't really grown as a photographer recently. HOWEVER, since they are what I have, you are going to see my mediocre shots. So there. http://www.mapphotography.com/PAWS/pages/prickly.html Taken at the Ruth Bancroft Garden, Walnut Creek, CA. This place was actually closed for winter clean up when we went and they let us in part of it anyway. I plan to return in the spring with a tripod. It was great. Comments welcome. Marnie aka Doe :-) Okay... I won't (re title).
