At first I thought it was some sea creature. My kids have some squishy, light-up toys that look like this!

OOh spikey. I agree with Sandy - I thought it was a sea creature, too.

Great shot! I love the detail!

Wow! That's an amazing photo!

great shot, at first I thought it was a sea urchin so I'm glad you posted what it was.
If you want to wander down my road I’m home.

Very cool!! I like this one a lot.

That's funny that everyone seems to think it's a see urchin upon first glance. It took me a minute to figure out it's some kind of plant gone to seed... maybe a thistle? Nice shot. Great perspective.

For some reason, I was expecting a snow shot!

I have to start looking at things close up. way close.

I was thinking thistle... Had to look up the Purple Coneflower since I hadn't heard of it before... I have seen them though... Beautiful even in seed form...

Jena 10/21/09, 10:20 PM  

It looks a lot like the echinops I have in one of my flowerbeds.

Kim 10/21/09, 11:02 PM

Wow, that's sure a spiny specimen. Nice close up.

Robin 10/22/09, 10:34 AM  

That is one cool shot, it looks so much like a sea anemone.

Perfection!

A spiky beauty! Have a good weekend.

Beautiful shot! Glad I'm not the only one who thought it was something from the sea! :)

I'm glad you id'd this for us - I thought it was a nettle or fall seed pod from a tree (yeah, I can't think of what kind of tree, but they're all over my SIL's yard in NJ ... the kids call them big gumballs)
