They look a lot like my cardoon blossoms, which are also very prickly. My regular thistles are Canadian thistles, and they are surprisingly fragrant. Your photos have great details!
Gunilla- These macros have great detail. Macro shots help us get to know the world around us - up close. Great to be back - thanks for stopping by my place. (Maybe next week I will have a true macro- you never know.)Teri
