Hogweed I really like the hogweed.
The plant consists of lots of small flowers, forming 1 big flower.
I chose a view from below. And I really wanted a blue sky as background.
So I took this photo on a beautiful summer's day.
But you have to be very careful when taking a photo of the hogweed. If you touch the plant with unprotected skin, it can give you big nasty burns.
People who saw me in the middle of summer when I took this photo were therefore surprised to see me wearing a long-sleeved shirt and long trousers during 30 degrees. To be on the safe side, I had also put on gloves. Everything for the photo... I think it's a beautiful summer photo and it hangs in my living room. Every time I walk past it, it cheers me up. Especially when it's grey and rainy for a few days.
My biggest hobby is photography.
I prefer to let my camera out every day in search of beautiful pictures.
I like morning photography best. Preferably a beautiful sunrise combined with a hint of mist. I can really enjoy this...
