Beauty comes with thorns

I photographed this bougainvillea at my backyard yesterday morning. It looks beautiful with the massive bunches of flowers but be aware: it has big, thick, needle-sharp thorns running along the branches! Bougainvilleas have lots of different colour variations. I have a purple one at front, and when the light touches the petals, it simply looks gorgeaus, like hundreds of butterfly wings stuck together.
