Decided it was about time I posted a pic from the new body - D2Hs. Shot with the Sigma 105mm macro.
Does anyone else see a Triffid in this pic

Not sure, but I'm sure John Wyndham would have approved...
Great shot Chris - hope you're feeling better... It has a little about the Little Shop of Horrors about it too...

Chris,
Great colours and details.
I am now going to secure my doors and windows, before the invasion commences
Also hope you are feeling better, and have a
on your dial.

The Day of the Triffids, The Kraken Wakes, Trouble With Lichen, The Midwich Cuckoos, (and more no doubt), fantastic and wonderful books from John Wyndham
Great shot Chris, yes, it is Triffidesque.

Not bad reading (or should I say re-reading) for us older types too
