Toothpick Weed (Ammi visnaga)

Now this a funny name for a weed, probably because of the small, pointed green ends, but it doesn´t really remind me of an toothpick. Very nicely capture, Keith.

It is a bit of a weird name isn't it? It doesn't remind me of a toothpick either.

I'm glad you like the photo though Stephen..........and thanks for commenting.

Wonderful macro.

Thank you Don.

Wonderful close-up with great use of bokeh.

Thanks very much Jaap.

Thank you so much Annemarie.

Diese unscheinbare Pflanze zeigst du aber von einer sehr schönen Seite lieber Keith,das ist in der Natur das Tolle,das auch so Unkraut ganz tolle Motive abgeben,es passt auch das Bokeh wunderschön dazu :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Abend,liebe Grüße Güni :))

Glad you like this photo Güni............and thanks for your visit and lovely comments as always.

Have a lovely evening yourself..........best wishes, Keith.

I don't know them at all, you can save yourself the toothpicks with them :D
But seriously, very nice the plant with that bokeh.

I've seen them a lot, but had no idea what they were called until I looked it up!

Glad you like the photo Jean-Paul.........much appreciated.

A fine macro and portrait.

Thanks very much John.........you're very kind.

Good macro and focal length, Keith. I'd like to do macro. I don't think I have any macros in my gallery. All the best, Anton.

Glad you like this one Anton.............thanks for your kind comments.

You should have a go.........you don't need a dedicated macro lens as long as you have one with a reaonabley close focussing distance. Most smart phones have a decent macro mode nowadays too.

An Apiaceae, in my region we call them commonly "ninho de perdiz", partridge nest !

That's a great name for them Isabel.......thanks for letting me know!

Funny name;-) It looks very photogenic, especially with the gorgeous bokeh background!

I quite agree!

Glad you like the photo though Gudrun..........and thanks for your nice comments.

Glad you like it Christel.............thanks very much.
