The XMTS Thistle Photo Thread
The Thistle is a symbol of Scotland. It is a hardy plant, a tough spiky plant, and yet when it blooms it stands out gorgeously.
Like those of Scottish ancestry it can be found all over the world. I thought it might be fun if the members of xmarksthescot.com shared their images of the their thistles from their own parts of the world (or imagination). Periodically those of us involved in Scottish Heritage activities find ourselves looking for images on the internet to use for flyers, posters, programs, and such. This thread could be quite useful to our members the next time they need an image. So I challenge our membership to add their photos, drawings, paintings, or other artwork that display the humble and noble thistle in all its glory.
Cheers
