Difficult to ignore a shapely teasel

I left my walk very late again and I could hardly see anything, let alone take photographs. Luckily I knew roughly where a nice patch of teasels grows alongside the footpath, and the flash was deployed to do the rest. Teasels have to be the outstanding architectural plant of the winter, equally spectacular silhouetted against a bright sun or a sunset, but I think this is the first time I've photographed them in the dark.
