That would suit him Xata :D Sorry Keith I couldn't resist that and Yes I know you know me too well. lol

Ha, ha............I do like a nice hat, but even I wouldn't wear a hat like that..!!

Beautiful close-up - and from the image softness one would not expect a straw texture

We live in an incredible age where artificial flowers grow in gardens!

Ha, ha...........yes, it's a very unusual flower Typo. Thanks for your visit and comments..!!

We loved using them for crafts because they're beautiful. :)
The glow of this yellow straw flower is magical! What a gorgeous shot, Keith!

I'd never heard of them until we bought some in a garden centre a month or so ago, it was only when I went to pick one that I realised how odd it felt to the touch.

Glad you like the photo.........and thanks as always for your kind comments and group suggestions..!!

A natural beauty!

Glad you think so Stephan.............many thanks.

Straw flowers always feel strange to the touch but in your photo that doesn't show:-) The colours are glorious and just pop.

Glad you like this one Gudrun............as always I appreciate your visit and kind comments.
