Doing a 365 Project has been one of the most rewarding challenges I've ever attempted, but it has its frustrating points too. For instance, I can only pick ONE main picture for each day (collages aren't the same thing!), and sometimes I'm very lucky and manage to get several star-performers. It can be really maddening, and though I can choose to share those pictures that day also, the Picture of the Day will always diminish the other images. ARGH! :D

Today is my Goatsbeard Seed exhibit, with my Picture of the Day and FOUR star performers from another day. (This is the picture that made the pick that day and it included a series of its own! ) I decided that in order to get these pictures the attention they deserve, I would find another goatsbeard for my Picture of the Day and show all my pictures then. And so, I present to you, Goatsbeard Seed Day! :D I hope you enjoy them! :) (There are 4 other pictures following this one!)

Joseph Addison (1 May 1672 – 17 June 1719) was an English essayist, poet, playwright and politician. He was the eldest son of reverend Lancelot Addison. His name is usually remembered alongside that of his long-standing friend, Richard Steele, with whom he founded The Spectator magazine. Wikipedia: Joseph Addison

Great collection, Janet. I can see why you have difficulty in picking the best one.
And just what is wrong with fried spiders legs. They taste just like crisps!
Enjoy your day.

I also sometimes have a hard time deciding which photo to showcase (LOL) but this one is gorgeous. The overhead view (4th note) is also amazing looking like an alien spider or some such thing. Great series!
