I have looked like that many a time. I love that you take something that is basically despiced to began with, a weed, you show that even in its last days it has a texture and beautiful look to it. The colors are still so pretty with the purple. You certainly did give it new life with your gorgeous composition and beautiful details. Awesome work my friend.
Have yourself a great day. #9427439
