No, not the wall of an ice cave, but a portion of a single petal of a white prickly poppy, Argemone albiflora, for which species the crinkling is normal. While yesterday’s picture showing a white prickly poppy as a whole contrasted its whiteness with the dark of the burned forest behind it, today’s theme is white on white.

Date:  June 6, 2012.  Location:  the southern portion of Great Hills Park in my northwest Austin neighborhood.
