The plant is a young sunflower. This is the head just starting to unfold, the seeds are where the ladybird is sitting.

WOW - WOW - WOW..... AGAIN I WISH I HAD this plant/Cactus when I was taking photos..... I love its COLOR, SHAPE, TEXTURES, SOFTNESS, FUZZY BITS on the curling edges. BUT WHAT I LOVE MOST is the sweet tiny little LADYBIRD in the CENTER which gives us a true size re MACRO photography re this AMAZING IMAGE that I like to have my NAME ON ..... the SQUARE CROP is a definate SHERPET trademark..... A TRUE STYLE SHERPET

EXCELLENT

THANK YOU for entering this AWESOME MACRO image
from shez with love xox
