EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by FLPA/Marcus Webb, we witness a truly unforgettable moment of nature's revenge. As the unsuspecting human wrist comes into contact with the notorious Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica), all hell breaks loose! The picturesque countryside of Suffolk, England sets the stage for this wild encounter. Amidst the vibrant and lush surroundings, our brave adventurer finds themselves on an unexpected journey through pain and discomfort. With its painful touch and potent chemicals, this perennial wildflower proves to be no ordinary plant. The stinging sensation caused by histamine and acetylcholine triggers a reaction that leaves even the toughest souls wincing in agony. But fear not! Our resilient protagonist showcases their resilience amidst adversity. This snapshot serves as a reminder that humans are not invincible when it comes to Mother Nature's tricks. So next time you find yourself wandering through East Anglia or any temperate region of Europe, beware of these mischievous nettles lurking in plain sight. They may look innocent enough but can deliver quite a sting! Let this image serve as both a cautionary tale and an amusing reminder that sometimes even our closest encounters with nature can leave us itching for more. . . or maybe just some soothing cream!
