I was taken some pictures around a lake in Northern New mexico last summer. It was cloudy & getting ready to rain when I ran across these flowers.

Nice shot Ken with good comp and yellows. I like the OOF flower in the BG. We have a similar species (if not the same) here in the east. Tragopogon dubius, Yellow Goatsbeard.

Great sharpness and the comp is nice although I'm not completely sure about the cut off BG flower. I really like the detail on the main subject though.

Interesting flower and very photogenic! I think the beautifully captured FG flower would stand out even more if the BG flower was cropped out.

Great colour and I like the spider webs around the flower .
The OOF flower in the back does distract

Ken: Really nice capture of the main subject but the BG flower needs to be all in or all out of the frame. I think I would prefer this as a pure solitaire. Striking colors. >=))>
