I photographed a prickly ring of flower.

Sorry Johnny Cash! This is a teasel flowering it's socks off. The flowers progress up the globe and finish at the top.

Very warm day today, had to start trimming a hedge in a garden which has no shade, apart from that, everything was good.

The extra is Lavender Melissa Lilac which I can't recommend enough, it is looking brilliant and is covered in bees.

This evening I went up onto the downs close to mine to see the partial eclipse, it looked impressive but my camera couldn't capture it.
