Wildflowers
Alien Ears (paintbrush flower) .. One of my fav's to spot on hikes. They're so bright!
Little Mountain (spreading phlox flower) .. I was thinking that the light was too harsh so I put my finger into the frame in hopes of blocking/blurring/fixing some of that. I think it was pretty good. Mixed in some neutral tones for a nice warmth. I'll have to try this some more.
Y (red columbine flower) .. I think it was the first time I ever saw these flowers. And there were a lot of them out! I thought the delicate balance in weights was nice to observe here. Like a scale. There is a fly buzzing by the left flower, maybe the scale will tip once he lands.

Cool idea Lea to tone down the light with your finger. Wildflower shots are such a nice way to remember moments from a fine hike. The Columbines down here are more purple than your nice orange/red variety. I also like the paintbrush one of my favorites as well.

I really like the 2nd picture, it looks like a surreal mountain vista with giant, 20 ft. diameter flowers growing like trees. :)
