FuchsiaI'm thinking about entering Gardening Gone Wild's Photo Contest. Definitely no chance of winning. I just don't want to embarrass myself. So, if you don't mind helping me out, please let me know which of the last two photos you like the best. Thanks!

Jackie, I LOVE that photo of the artichoke flower! I don't think I've ever seen one. I had no idea. Feel really stupid, but that is just really pretty!!
I like both of the last 2 photos. I'm not sure about the rules of the contest - just skimmed it and it looks like the theme is "on your knees". Just wanted to be sure the photos would fit the theme. The corn is very cool, but I think I personally like the fuschia. I love the color. There's also something slightly disquieting about the corn - almost like it's stabbing me in my right eye. Still very cool though...still definitely cool...just my 2 cents - and what the hell do I know???
My favorite of all your photos here was "Brocade corn (tassel)".
Thanks for your input Wendy and Sylvana! I think I'll go with the corn... I agree with Wendy that it seems like it's about to stab me in the eye, but I kind of think that might be a good thing in a photo. It's engaging, anyway ;)
