Great detail there, Neil! I wouldn't want to get caught on those thorns!
Thanks for your comments!
Dave.

Lovely and sharp.
Ouch
Do you want me to stop commenting on your images?
I seem unable to prevent the bad puns...

Neil, you have the talent of making good photographs out of subject matter that isn't normally considered photogenic. I believe I've almost always seen thorns depicted in a negative manner - either to contrast against another subject or as a metaphor for some dark emotion.
Your photograph captures the inherent (and overlooked) beauty of a thorny branch. The sharpness, the color and the DOF come together very well. I specially like the horizontal composition.

Nitish,
You touch on a subject that is close to my philosophy behind my photography.
It is my belief that if you took any square metre (or yard) of area, there is a (good) photograph in there somewhere. The art is in the seeing.
I don't know that I'm sufficiently skilled in that art yet, butI'm working on it!
Thanks for your considered comments. Much appreciated.
Neil
