Well I was going to post a pic of the spike and a flower closeup and discovered that I somehow deleted the spike pic from its file. So since I'm here anyway, afraid all ya get is the flower close up.

Sorry it isn't brighter, but if the light was too bright the glare off the flower seemed to wipe out the details. (For anyone unfamiliar with these, the flowers are snow white.) So here it is in all its cockeyed "glory"
