Ouch!

Nettle.  Nikon D200
9th July 2015

The woodpile for burning during the winter has grown quite large (it still includes a Christmas tree from 2013/14).  My excuse is that the heap is too big to get past and so I have not picked the nettles that are growing behind it.

This nettle is maturing well, however in leaning forward to capture its picture, I discovered it is well guarded by its friends...   the tungsten tipped javelins punctured my leg and came up in big white painful lumps.  :(
