Something different is always intriguing. I like this a lot with the fine detail and dark background.
Well done

Beautiful! Have you ever seen the old movie, "The Uninvited"? Mimosa plays an important role in it.

I've always enjoyed mimosa bushes but never from the advantage of such a close view, and what a great view it is. Thank you.

Beautiful image, as usual, Ed!

As beautiful as they are, mimosa trees are quite invasive, as you will see if you drive through the Smokies and see them everywhere.

Yes, I have a mimosa tree over my back fence. Such an interesting bloom, in its delicate structure. Not so nice in our winter.
What does it Mimic? Pretty unique look to me.
