  5. You captured this teasel beautifully. Salty picked teasel last year for my fall arrangement in the living room; I am using it this year as well; it’s handled very carefully.

  13. Two outstanding photographs, with the teasel and the dragonfly, Kerri!

    I never get tired of seeing shots of teasel. There is just something about it, whether in summer or once it is dead that I find extremely attractive as a photographic subject.
