Artistic License

In my library of photos, I found this photo of a Jimson Weed bloom that I’ve been keeping for some time.  Many of my fellow bloggers have posted photos and stories about this plant before.  It is a highly toxic plant that is one of a group of plants known as the “belladonnas”.  It is known to have hallucinogenic properties and with that in mind, I decided to alter the state of my photo just as this weed might alter the state of one’s mind.  So, here you have my hallucinogenic version of a Jimson Weed blossom.

    With your creative portrayal of the hallucinogenic properties of this plant, you have spared the rest of us from the temptation of experimentation.

    This is very clever, Sharon! Now I feel like being under the belladonna effect! :-)))
