Sunday Sunset
I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...

oohhh.. that must be painful when pricked... looks like this tree is too prickly to bear leaves!
This is not such a beautiful tree! All these terrible thorns ... It may be a "Honey locust" ... but I don't know for sure! Here you can read on Wikipedia.
Heave a nice week ahead!
I wouldn't want to be anywhere near that tree. Just look at the terrible big thorns.
Reminds me of the mini series long ago...the thorn birds. Why, I don't know.
I don't know what that one is but I used to have a pear tree in my back yard that had thorns on it. They weren't nearly as long as these but they hurt like heck when you tried to mow around the tree and one caught your arm.
I know I would not want to stumble into that one!
I think I'll just stay far away from this tree!
I think I have seen a thorn tree somewhere but can't remember when or where. It looks like a kind of tree that appears in a scary movie :-) I wonder if birds would perch on those branches.
Love the quote about roses and thorns!
Happy new week to you, Ginny!
I've never seen thorns like that either. I have no idea what it is, all I know is -- this tree does not like visitors getting too close.
I do not - but the first thing I thought of was Jesus's crown of thorns he was made to wear and it saddened me.
I wouldn’t want to run into a tree like that.
Those look lethal, as if they could reach through the Internet and jab my fingers as I type. They remind me of similar hefty thorns we saw on bushes in Israel December 1984. I can't remember the species, but the guide said they were the kind used in Jesus' crown of thorns.
That looks scary!
I don't know what kind of tree this is Ginny, but those thorns are not something I would like to prune.
Wow. I've never seen a tree with thorns. Great for Halloween.
Wow those are wicked looking thorns.
Well. Now we know where His crown of thorns came from.
Oh. And it might be a thorn acacia out of Africa.
