I saw a yellow wildflower along side the road yesterday, and couldn't find it in my book, and I thought oh, that's ok, I'll make a pic of it and post it and Kathy will tell me what it is..I plan to go back today and do that very thing...it has leaves almost like marijuana...

Thanks, Terry! Thanks, Helen! Not on my stomach, but certainly in a cramped position; my legs get charley horses from this kind of photography.

Thank you, approvers, for the blue!

Thank you, Eve and Donna! The DOF was something of a problem; I had to press some flowers in the foreground out of the way in order to get the focus right on the remaining ones. The background is dark because it consisted of a solid stand of trees in the shade.

Thank you, Laura; I appreciate your encouragement! I had several similar shots showing more sky in the background, but the dark ones were simply more dramatic.

Thank you, Jufo, Gayle, and Katy! When I first drove by those flower beds on the way down to Winston, I said to myself, "Ah! I must stop and shoot them on the way home!" Now I'm really glad I did, the pics came out so well. I'll post another couple.
