photography

….and sharing on a Wednesday

A bit of a vlog update about my week of struggling through a hard day to new creative stirrings coming to be.

Here are my photos of that pesky, musk thistle I mention.

So, so beautiful but apparently quite the trouble maker.

The colors and texture of it is what drew me towards it. And why I took it’s photo.

It looks like something you would find on another planet.

And after my experiences with sharing this photo at a Nebraska photography Facebook group, many people wish that it was on another planet and had stayed there.

It spreads quickly and takes over farm and cattle grazing land rendering it unusable and is a lot of hard to work to get rid of and keep under control if one decides to sprout up.

I emailed the vice president of the Nebraska Weed Control Association and superintendent of weeds at Douglas Country Environmental Services and shared with him the location of the musk thistle and that it was on city land and he responded that he would let the proper City of Omaha officials know.

Creative blessings to you…
