POTD CHALLENGE: FLOWERS

There are 2 things I like about this flower: 1 - that it is a California poppy, but not the the common bright orange of most; and 2 - that this one is still hanging onto its bud shell, yet it is in full blossom! KInd of a poppy sucky blankie?

Also, this week's challenge is a personal one for me. My files are FULL of my favorite subject: flowers! So I am trying to get a new one each day rather than rely on my plethora of photos.

Nice nice, ML! Crisp focus and a great job capturing the delicacy of the center. Love the Shell still hanging on...

That is a beautiful flower. This week has been a favorite of mine too. Not only do I love photographing flowers, I love seeing everyone else's beautiful shots.
