Fascinating subject D&L. Is that a succulent they are on? I wonder if a touch more contrast would help make this sing, but very nice as is.

This is eye catching. I like that all of the thorns in the forefront are mostly all in focus.

Very unusual, this has "Keep your distance" written all over it!

Wow! Those look menacing! Very cool macro photo. I think f22 might have been able to give you just a touch more sharpness (no pun intended) - like in the thorn toward the top-center of the photo - while still allowing you to stay within the sharpest aperture range of the lens.

Nicely balanced composition you guys. I like the color palette as well. Another very appealing image in this series.

What a unique view! It seems sort of 3-D to me. Very eye-catching and easy to look at for a long time.

At first glance, D&L, these thorns look like beads.
Interesting.
Cheers,

Wonderful macro. Sure looks menacing. Like the pattern and texture at the base of the thorns.
