A soft & golden-hued image of a large bed of burr-type seed pods of the wildflower known as teasel, photographed near the shoreline of Lake Ontario (one of the Great Lakes). With their delicate, somewhat feathery yet rustic appearance, the teasel seed pods make an eye-catching splash of shapes against the pale meadow grass in the background. Teasel has a fascinating history... According to Wikipedia, "...Fuller's Teasel (the cultivar group Dipsacus fullonum...) was formerly widely used in textile processing, providing a natural comb for cleaning, aligning and raising the nap on fabrics, particularly wool."

Teasel Heads In the Frost A walk in the frost seemed to be unproductive with the camera, as I was after some spiders webs in the frost. I stopped at a field full of wildflowers and noticed these Teasel Heads standing proud in the winters sun. I took a couple of photographs, and I am pleasantly surprised with the results. This looks amazing on prints but also on pillows, and how about a puzzle for your friend on those cold winters nights? By Paul Thompson Photography
