There's loads of that growing around here, Doug, but try as I might I haven't managed to get a good photo of it. despite the fact that we pass clumps of it every day at the moment on our socially distance walk. This macro is superb.

I was lucky Amelia as the flowers were growing near the top on an embankment alongside a bridleway, so quite easy to get a good PoV. Thanks for the kind comment, glad you like it.

Your kind words are very welcome Rosa, thank you. Apparently these nettles don't sting! I will leave that to others to confirm;-)
