Thank you all for your comments and time viewing this photo, I really appreciate it. This stalk was on a cliff hundreds of feet above the ocean in Italy. It was completely dead for those of you who were concerned, I think it froze before ever even blooming (it was 40 degrees out mid day when this shot was taken, it had been dead for a long while though). I liked straightening this stalk up and giving it a last moment of order before it finally snaps and falls off the cliff (which it probably has by now). Thanks again for commenting. I spent two weeks in Cinque Terra (amazingly photogenic) and France and London shooting non stop its nice to be able to share at least this image :-)

I love this image! For me it conveys such intense personality in the cat, even though barely any expression is shown. and the contrast of textures and also feeling... the classic world of a cat and the square modern look of a screen. I dig it a bunch!
