    1. It was some kind of a spiky flower .. originally green .. I made it B&W within a few minutes just for you ;). It was last summer with my power shot.. now I have a slightly better equipment :). Your opinion really matters Sonel. Thank you *a gentle hug*

            1. I am well rested, and enjoying a peaceful and slow day in the office :). Have been reading about chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.. I’ve heard of these conditions before, but now wanted to learn more what it implies… Have you been suffering for long?

    1. Caro Alessandro , e passato tanto tempo …. I will stop by in a short while… As for the pic I was careful while taking it ;).
      I have always liked spiky flowers… I wonder why… maybe cause they remind me of crowns (thorny crowns to be exact)?!
