But I'm a #creepingThistle
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
Oh right, it's #WildflowerWednesday

A close-up photograph of a creeping thistle plant in bloom, set against a blurred brown background.
At the top left of the stem, a single flower head is fully open, featuring numerous fine, pale purple-pink florets extending upwards from a bulbous green involucre with overlapping scale-like bracts and yellow tips. Surrounding the main bloom are several unopened flower buds of varying sizes. Each bud has a textured, green, globe-shaped base topped with tight, unopened purple tips.
The slender green stem has small, spiky leaves with spiny margins visible near the base of the flower clusters. The lighting is soft and natural, with the main flower in sharp focus while the background remains completely out of focus.
